The Apple TV box doesn’t include any subscriptions. It is just streaming media player hardware. If you buy it, it is yours.
For any of the subscription services, you would have to take a separate subscription. No bundles (at this time).
If you have any subscription services to streaming services already, then you can probably use them through the Apple TV box, as the various apps allow users to sign in with existing accounts.
If you buy a new Apple TV box, then you may qualify for an extended free trial to Apple’s own streaming service featuring Apple Originals: Apple TV+.

Hi Kacib17,
Welcome to the Apple Community.
Re: If I buy the Apple TV box do I have a monthly subscription for it?
Sorry I'm no expert on this.
Seems it depends on what you want to use Apple TV for, and what you want to view on it.
Eg: Seems you would be able to use Apple TV as a device with an interface for streaming etc, without extra monthly charges.
If you want to access subscription based services etc. you would pay the monthly subscription(s) for them.
Are there any Apple TV box users out there, who can share their experience ?
