Why is appletv 4th generation so bad? Here are the answers

1. Does not play the same files as old appletv's.


2. Siri is useless.


3. The "swipe" control is a good idea but does not work very well.


4. Every time you use the appletv you have to restart it as it does not recognise itunes libraries that have been asleep or closed.


5. Every time you fast forward or rewind you have to restart the appletv as the sound cuts out every now and then for some reason.


6. After watching movies or tv episodes for a while you need to restart the appletv as the sound lags slowly till it is unbearable.


7. When you want to play a movie or tv episode you can not push play because you have to push the "swipe" pad instead.


8. Every time you turn on the appletv you have to click "yes" i do not have icloud set up.


9. The control is usually upside down as you can not tell the difference till you try pushing a button.


10. Trying to down load games or apps involves restarting the appletv several times as the down loads freeze for some reason.


And im sure there are more. Please feel free to add to the list. Loved my appletv's before this generation.

Mac Pro, Mac OS X (10.7.5)
