Q: Limited App avail Apple TV 4

App availability for Apple TV4 is very limited. I have an IPad that has full access to ITunes Apps. I would like to has full access to the Apps store from my Apple TV4. Also I would like to download Apps that I have paid for to  my Apple TV4 and have more new apps to download.  Is it reasonable to assume that this limitation will soon be gone.  I have only found 3 Apps that were paid for previously for IPad that I was able to install from the Apps Store on AppleTV4.

iPad, Windows 7, Apple TV

    It is up to the app developers to decide whether or not to invest time and effort in adapting each of their apps to Apple TV. Those that rely on heavily on the multi-touch interface are unlikely to be easy redesign. Some developers will embrace the challenge, others not, and in many cases an Apple TV version won't be appropriate anyway.
