PBS, which has historically carried educational children's programming as part of its lineup for the past several years prior to it being mandated, airs a variety of children's programming from 6 a.m. to approximately 2 p.m. local time (the time periods ceded to children's programs vary between the network's member stations). Cable television channels specializing in children's programming such as Nickelodeon, Cartoon Network, and Disney Channel (by 2014, the channel's weekday lineup would consist solely of its live-action sitcoms) as well as video-on-demand streaming media such as Netflix, Hulu, iTunes (now Apple TV), Amazon Prime Video, Redbox, television video on demand services and other video rental outlets that also provide alternative ways of distributing children's programming at any time of day or week, without restrictions placed on such programming that an FCC-licensed broadcast station must honor to stay in business or the need for advertising to fund it.
