Both services offer different content. Sometimes you might find a show or a movie that both of them have, but it is rare. NetFlix has original shows that you can only watch on NetFlix. And NetFlix, like I said, I pay the higher price so I can have actual DVDs sent to my house. I get 3 DVDs and as soon as I return them, I get 3 more. I can do this as often as I want every month. Having both services gives us a good bit of movies and TV shows to choose from. The content does change so you never know what you might find on either service.

From your previous message this is no longer hte case? if netflicks gives streaming content ...I guess my question is since apparently now hulu is accessable why do you use 2 streamingservices like netflicks and hulu? Just wondering. I'm relaly intrested because I toowould like to do without my cable service. The apple tv sounds like the perfect divice to do this.

I also pay $11.99 each month for Hulu+ which also gives me unlimited streaming without commercials, something that was recently added, to my Apple TV and other supported devices. I have heard that Apple TV is trying to negotiate with networks for some sort of deal for customers, but I won’t know more about it until next week. Everything right now is speculation until someone has the new Apple TV and can give us all more information about what is and isn’t included. From: Jeremy Gilley Sent: Monday, October 26, 2015 2:58 PM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: RE: New Apple TV In The Apple Store Yeah, but the question is this: How much in monthly charges are you going to have to pay per package you want to watch on apple TV? Such as netflix, HBO and what other channels that might come out? Won't any new apps for apple TV might want to charge for their services? Don't you have to pay for those individually? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of MamaPeach Sent: Monday, October 26, 2015 2:00 PM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: New Apple TV In The Apple Store But this one will have it’s own app store and a lot more content, and an advanced remote, the price is a bit high but it will pay for itself in the long run.

You can get an Apple TV 3 for $69 and it offers lots of content. More than I have time to use personally and I have no problem with the included remote or with the remote app on the IPhone. It will be interesting to see what the added features are. Thanks for the info.

I want to get rid of my cable as well because the price is just too much for what it offers. Where can I find out what is available on apple tv? Should I just google it?

I cut cable a long time ago, because many of the channels that cable offers are things I just don’t watch. With Apple TV, I pay for a NetFlix subscription and a Hulu+ subscription and get a lot of content just with those too. I enjoy other applications as well, such as Lifetime, A&E, YouTube, ABC, NBC, CBS, etc. There is so much available, on the 2nd generation alone there are 71 apps, not counting all the content you can access through the iTunes store, and the new generation is supposed to have so much more. I am looking forward to Voice Recognition and playing around with Siri. I would rather have a Roku as Roku offers tons and tons and tons of channels, but the Roku has no VoiceOver or any other speech which makes it toally useless for a blind person. Apple TV, with VoiceOver enabled, is a great set top box for a blind individual. I can’t wait to see what all the new version does offer. From: Jeremy Gilley Sent: Monday, October 26, 2015 10:45 AM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: RE: New Apple TV In The Apple Store 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.
