I want to get one to try it out, but I don't really need one. My Roku Ultra LT and Roku Streaming Stick 4k are still working fine.

Even though I have Apple TV+ for free through T-Mobile, every time I open it on my browser it wants me to pick a $9.99/month plan or a $99/annual plan. Um, no. I just click away amd move on. It's okay, but I'm concerned someone in my family will click it.

Having one of everything, I’d say the Apple TV is the 2nd-most used streaming device. I mainly use it for Apple Music, and Airplay from my phone or iPad. The NVidia Shield with Kodi does pretty much everything else I need, especially with SmartTube (ad-free YouTube.)

The 2nd and 3rd gen devices are 13 and 11 years old now. They don’t even run tvOS. The surprise is they supported them this long.

Oh, then that’s not the version I own any more I guess. Weird, I don’t remember owning a previous version.

re: The Apple TV Device Thread
Expect a lot less new and original shows and movies on Apple TV+. Apparently a lot of people aren’t watching. I did read recently they are planning to license more older content.

Apple TVs are on sale for $100 at Costco. The 128GB is out of stock, but check your local store if you feel like braving the crowds to see if they have any in stock.

Did anyone find a Apple TV at a Costco? They're sold out online. The 128GB sold out quickly. I was hoping it would come back in stock, but it didn't and the 64 GB just sold out online too. I'm going to look tonight after work. I really wanted the 128GB for $100. That's $50 off...

You can check Costco stock in their app also (the Warehouse tab at the bottom). Seems to be pretty accurate when I've used it.

tvOS 18.2 was released today. Main updates are the improved projector support (including 21x9 aspect ratio) and Snoopy screensaver.
