BlACK FRIDAY

So after Thanksgiving which was late, we left my mom’s house at 9:30 PM. I had been asking for an Apple TV to replace my broken samsung dvd player that I used to stream my movies. In the car, I asked my husband if we could go to Target. He agreed and bought me my apple TV. It’s perfect except I can’t find an amazon app for my TV. Amazon and Apple are having some issue I don’t care about and blocking that. Now my broken DVD player is going to the trash and I’m set to watch Game of Thrones come April as well as Netflix. I’m thinking of canceling Netflix once I finish House of Cards for a while and maybe check out Hulu. So for Christmas shopping, I have one person done… my dad. He’s the easiest to shop for as he tells you straight out what he wants. No one else has provided a list to make this easy. Have a great dat with your family. I’ll be setting up a Christmas tree later. (We live in an apartment so it’s a Charlie Brown type of tree… one day I want the big one but for now the small place on the beach only gets a small tree.) Hope today is peaceful for everyone!

Frequently Asked Questions

How does Apple TV work as a replacement for a DVD player for streaming movies?

Apple TV can replace a DVD player for streaming movies by giving you access to services like Netflix and HBO (for shows like Game of Thrones). However, one notable limitation is that Amazon Prime Video is not available on Apple TV due to an ongoing dispute between Amazon and Apple, so users relying on Amazon streaming will need an alternative solution.

What is the issue with Amazon app not being available on Apple TV?

Amazon and Apple have had an ongoing dispute that has prevented the Amazon Prime Video app from being available on Apple TV. This means Apple TV owners who want to stream Amazon content cannot do so directly through the device and must find another way to access their Amazon library, such as using a separate streaming device.

Should I keep Netflix or switch to Hulu after finishing my current shows?

If you’ve finished the shows you signed up for, canceling Netflix temporarily and trying Hulu is a cost-effective strategy. Netflix is ideal for binge-watching specific series like House of Cards, while Hulu offers different content, including next-day TV episodes. Canceling and resubscribing seasonally based on must-watch content can help manage streaming costs.
