Apple TV+

[Anders]

At its special March 2019 event, Apple announced Apple TV Plus, a brand new streaming service that, according to its CEO Tim Cook, "is unlike anything that's come before".

This doesn't look that interesting so far. Wonder if it will struggle in competition with Prime, Netflix, HBO and Disney.

Pretty on brand for Apple to claim a streaming service is unlike anything you've seen before (in 2019).

I overheard two different conversations about this on Friday. Both were discussing how you need an iPhone to watch these shows. I think Apple is going to struggle to market this to the consumer that is used to Apple services only being available on Apple devices.

Hearing good things about The Morning Show.

Bought an Apple TV today. I like the interface.

Will probably watch The Morning Show soon.

Don't you have to pay for their shows?

It’s $6 dollars per month here for Apple TV+, or free for a year when you buy an Apple product.

On Apple TV all apps are free, but of course if you want to watch Netflix, Prime, HBO, etc., you must buy a subscription with those.

Why the plus? Why not just "Apple TV"?

Why the plus? Why not just "Apple TV"?

Apple TV is the hardware. Apple TV+ is the service.

I dunno I think they should rethink this whole thing
