The Apple TV streaming-television device can replace the clunky cable box for Charter Spectrum cable subscribers later this year, Apple said Monday at its Worldwide Developers Conference in San Jose.

WWDC is the event at which Apple details the newest software that will hit its devices later in the year. It comes as software and services become even more important to Apple. The company still sells millions of iPhones every quarter, but sales aren't rising as much as they used to. With people are holding onto their devices for longer, convincing consumers to sign up for services that get they paying monthly has grown more crucial for Apple. The gadget giant has emphasized augmented reality, mobile payments, streaming music and other areas as key focuses over the past couple of years.
