Apple TV is not Apple TV+?
What kind of “plus” version of an app actually omits features that are in the regular version of itself?
I own movies in my Apple account and can play them on iOS with Apple TV. Yet when I log into Apple TV on my cable box, I am not allowed to access that library. I can only watch their streaming programs.
So in what sense do I own these movies? Only in certain versions of Apple TV?
In which case how can they call the cable box version of their app “Apple TV+” when it’s actually minus an entire feature of viewing purchased films?
is this not totally @$$ backwards to anyone else?
To make matters worse there remains no Apple TV app on Windows, so I can’t use my laptop as the only remaining option in reach. I’m relegated to a poorly supported iTunes app, which doesn’t even launch my movies despite all the troubleshooting.
Quit with this walled garden mentality already, Apple. Play nice cross-platform.
