Re: [iPad] Re: Apple TV question

 

People in NZ want that too. As per my just posted post, they want to have some of our one cable providers content and not the rest. The issue with that is that it will save you money. For you, thats a good thing, but for the cable company, its lost revenue. The cost if the rights covers all content. The cost that consumers pay is for all the content, even though you dont want it all. But in the overall mix, they make a profit. if revenues drop, they have to drop content. Then people will revolt. Effectively, everyone subsidises everyone.. What I ma saying is that your cable company past CBS a fee, but if that fee was people like you at $10 per month I suggest it will be way less. There is a LOT of content out there, and the vast majority of it is cheap as chips. The new content and the CBS if you like is not cheap. But when a service has a gazillion programs, it seems like a good deal, which it is. But these new and desired contents are very expensive, subsidised by all of their subscribers

There has to be a happy medium. After getting an Apple TV and finding I watched mainly the different TV apps, like AMC etc rather than cable, I figured I was paying too much and shut off cable.  As it stands now cord cutters don't have a lot of options. We'd like to be able g to choose the networks we want, download their apps and watch. Even if that charge a bit. $6 a month for the CBS app, $10 with no commercials. That's fine for me. I don't know why other networks can't do the same.

To be fair, you cut your cord. Did you check whats available after that? A cable provider may have rights to the show, so its there only. That's fair

I love thatI can notATV had lots of TV network apps. What's maddening is that I am a cord cutter and quite a few of the nenetworks won't let me watch without a cable provider.

I use my Apple TV not just for iTunes movies (rentals too) and TV shows but I have downed all the apps for providers I like. PBS, Netflix, Hulu, STARZ, NAT.Geo., many others.

Thanks for the info, friends!  Sounds like the Apple TV would work for us.

I just tried using AirPlay to stream a ballet excerpt from the Medici site to my Apple TV 4 from my iPad Pro2 and it worked perfectly. You can stream content that supports AirPlay. I can't recall anything I have tried to stream recently from my iOS or iMac that wouldn't play, but your mileage may vary.
