I see that peeps are having a similar issue with todays update to ATV. Not good. Was there ever a definitive fix discovered?
Where are you seeing these "peeps"? I don't see any reports here, or on other forums about today's update yet.

I see...thanks. I'm having issues too, so I'm curious how widespread this update problem is. Never occurred to me to look at a "news" subforum for product specific issues.

This type of thread happens within minutes every time there is an iOS update released.
The problem is simply that Apple has "X capacity" on their servers. Once the update is released, every Apple owner on the planet tries to download at once, exceeding the available "X capacity" and (technical term coming) clogging the works.
For a smooth download experience, just wait a day or two. By then the capacity will be available. Probably not reasonable to expect Apple to build capacity out to cover the capability for downloading to everybody all at once.

I have also read others thinking the update had failed, only to be completed up to 5 hours later. I know for the previous update it hung at step 1 and I was just about to stop it, but made myself wait and 1 hour later it completed. (That was over wifi)
Amy 2013 version doesnt update
Just bought à brand new version and it doesnt up date or access authentication server over ethernet. Been tranig now for 3 weeks. Just went wireless and low and behoud all perfect. Come on Apple this is basic stuff. Nothing on your forums. Dissapointed
