Do I need an Apple device to get Apple TV?

I've been trying to subscribe to Apple TV on my ROKU TV. I have an Apple account. The app says I need an ITunes account. Do I really need this? More$$$. Apple seems to make it very difficult if I don't have an Apple device. Too exclusive! Too hard! I've been trying for 2 days!

Your Apple ID account needs to be ready for use with the iTunes Store. As above. That is needed.


More$$$.

No, subscribing to Apple TV+ is the only fee, if you stick to Apple TV+ content. Other content in the Apple TV app is not included in this subscription, and may require additional payments, as indicated in the app.
