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. _____ From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of MamaPeach Sent: Monday, October 26, 2015 10:04 AM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: New Apple TV In The Apple Store 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.
