I'll be getting myself the Apple TV 4K, as I've already got a fair amount of stuff for my existing one and (when the studio makes it available in 4K) that gets upgraded automatically at no additional cost
It'll be good when the Amazon Prime Video app arrives later in the year too - save me the trouble of using the one on the TV, which has terrible UI.
It's interesting that they've persuaded the big studios to let them sell 4K movies at the same price as HD - usually around £13 for brand new releases, but rapidly dropping to £6 - £10. Just a day or two ago I read some article asserting that Apple wanted to charge $20 but the studios wanted to charge $30 a pop and were reluctant to budge, but it looks like that was about as reliable as virtually all speculative punditry about AppleComment

"Apple’s new iPhone X will allow users to do something we never dared dream would be possible with a handheld device. It lets you take control of the poo emoji with your own face...
"... That’s right, the animated pile of excrement, which is among the most popular methods of communication for millennials, can be controlled with the tech giant’s new Face ID feature."“Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.”Comment

Originally posted by NickFitz View PostThe new one will be my third. The main thing that's been missing for me (apart from 4K) was an Amazon Prime Video app, which is due soon; it's already got apps for BBC iPlayer, ITV, and Channel 5. No Channel 4 app, though. Not sure why C4 haven't got around to that yet. And you can set up Plex, or use AirPlay from the Mac Mini, or indeed from an iPhone or iPad. Oh, and you can access any existing iTunes libraries on computers on the same wifi network from the Computers app.
Oh and almost everything I want is on plex...Last edited by eek; 13 September 2017, 07:16.merely at clientco for the entertainmentComment
