UK subscriber of Motor Trend On Demand Compatability?

Hi,

I am a UK subscriber of Motor Trend On Demand. I have looked at buying either an Apple AV Adapter (to connect to my LG LED TV) to watch episodes off of my iPad and comparing that to buying Apple TV. I was curious if anyone could tell me whether it is possible to watch this US based app on either on a UK Apple TV setup or on the AV Adaptor? Obviously wouldn't like to waste money so wanted to ask whats best.

Many thanks!

I don't know whether that app is available in the TVoS US store (I'm in the UK), however..... No, you are only allowed to use the store in the location where you reside. It's in the terms and conditions when you purchase any content. Apple reserve the right to block any attempts to circumvent this.

No it is on the UK app store, the only issue is there are usage rights on certain parts of the content like live streams of some US races. I only use it to watch Roadkill, Roadkill Garage, Engine Masters, Dirt Every Day and Hot Rod Garage. So whatever appears on the normal UK app store will work on the UK Apple TV? That is probably the better way to ask that one... 😊

It is indeed available on the UK TVoS.

The subscription information is listed in dollars but it does say that some content may not be available on all countries which to me implies that some content is.

Apps for iOS don't always have an Apple TV counterpart, but in this case I can see Motor Trend on Demand in the UK tvOS app store.
