Besides the easy way to look at the menus, can't one just get all those
channels through their normal television sets?

I know this isn't in all states and countries, but some cable companies are
now having accessible ways to use menus through the television set itself.

Got to see it in action when I went to visit family a few weeks ago.

Just trying to see the difference.

I mean also besides the menus, the person can listen to music and do
pictures, but well, streaming pictures through my television set won't work.

Just some curious questions.

Never seen an apple TV in action, and for me, it just seems like just one
more thing to hook up to your television.

It's an honest mistake.  When people hear about Apple TV, Google TV, or
Android TV, they picture a big screen television with special features.
While a Google TV needs its own explanation, an Apple TV is a small network
media player that can stream both from your home computers and from online.

Apple TV is a small device ( similar in size and appearance to the Roku Box
or Amazon FireTV) that uses an HDMI cable to connect to your television.

It also uses Wifi (or Ethernet) to connect to your home network and the
internet.

The purpose of Apple TV is to provide users with the ability to stream
media, such as photos, movies and music from iPhones, the iTunes store, or
from other partners like Netflix, HuluPlus, and more recently HBOGO or
HBONow, to enjoy on your TV and home theater audio system.

The Apple TV has VoiceOver on it so blind people are able to navigate the
device and play all provided content. I have had an Apple TV for several
years now and I am able to use it without any sighted assistance with the
use of the VoiceOver feature. The new Apple TV is supposed to be so much
better than the one I have, which is the 2nd generation.

Sorry for my ignorance but exactly what is an apple tv and what use and
value does it have for blind users?

Just to let everyone know, the new Apple TV 4th gen is now for sale in The
Apple Store. I just purchased the 64 gig model for $199.99. Can't wait to
get it!
