Apple TV+ is either free for a few months or free altogether depending on which plan you have. We're on Magenta Plus some it's 100% included for us. Well, until now, as we also got the email on the price increase and the $3 charge. Still an amazing deal, we'll take it.

Apple TV+ is also included now as a perk if you have the Chase Sapphire Reserve credit card. As is Apple Music.

Mine renewed at the cheaper price so it's a nice little perk until next year when I'll have to weigh the pros and cons of renewing at their new higher price.

Yeah, I got that perk. Apple TV+ is a nice 'freebie', but the music service is kinda worthless to me because my family members can't use it, and you can't apply the cost of a single membership to a family membership subscription.

Yeah I was a little disappointed in how the Apple Music subscription played out, but they do seem to be adjusting things due to the refresh landing with such a thud.

Who is offering Music as a perk?

Chase Sapphire Reserve.

Apple TV has a 6 month promotion at $5.99/month for Black Friday

https://variety.com/2025/tv/news/app...op-1236588772/

You save $7 off regular price. Good through December 1st.

Variety is paywalled.

No it's not.

Just go to the Apple TV website

https://tv.apple.com/

The offer is on there.

I see it now, the variety link was trying to get me to sign up first.

Wow, this is huge. Apple TV has cancelled the French show "The Hunt" before it aired because the creator is accused of plagiarism. It's already been filmed and in the can.

X - Formerly Twitter

Not cancelled, just pulled. But if they find out the plagiarism is true then I can imagine they will cancel it. Or make a gigantic payout so it can air.

Apple needs to grow a set and release The Savant.

I was going to pounce on that 6 months for $5.99 deal but after I signed in no I have to pay $12.99 so forgot that.

The F1 section went live yesterday.

Saw this on SD

I did it
Probably won't watch it.

Then you'll forget about it until you're charged this time next year...

Or Apple announces the inevitable price increase to help pay for it.

Ha no
I already have it saved to get notified
