Kind of ironic after this post eh?
Calling the posting of rumors on a rumors site stupid, guessing and guessing, is not understanding what rumor means. The guesses ARE rumors. Why come to a rumors site if you think posting rumors there is stupid, it makes no sense? Just asking.

So true. And the fact that people not only are sad and cry, but they get mad at Apple for not delivering on their fantasy.
There is far more here than just rumors. Rumors make up only a very small part of this site. The majority of it is actual news, product reviews, and more.
Rumors might be interesting if people didn't buy into every single one like a fish on a hook. They think the rumors are fact then they spend countless pages here complaining after every keynote because the crazy sci-fi feature some unconfirmed rumor claimed didn't end up being true. I think it's a waste of time to invest in and believe such nonsense.
Shameful attitude to non-US customers
I fail to understand why Apple is unable to conduct parallel negotiations in different regions with providers.
The Apple TV has been on the market for many years now and the changes and added benefits seem to apply only to US customers, yet we pay higher prices for the ATV than the US.
This is a shameful attitude to customers who have paid good money for a product that quite clearly does not work fully outside the U.S.
Apple: pull your finger out and offer services for your products outside the U.S. it can't be that difficult!

So you have been reading stupid, silly material for 7 years?

I actually think you might be living in a fantasy world where you imagine people sad/mad and it make you happy. It is kinda scary.
She knowingly and deliberately sold her virtue to get dirt on President Clinton. She knowingly and deliberately acted as a prostitute for the Republican party in their campaign of character assassination politics. What she did was unforgivable and for me at least she is unforgiven.
She does not have the right to lecture anyone on how terrible character assassination is now.

Thank you for the uncalled for, unnecessary and continued slut shaming of Monica Lewinsky. If a man did what she did, he would be high-fived.
Anyway, I thought the TED channel has been on there longer than Tuesday?

Don't understand this, you know it will be released in April yet you say it's absent from today's update. 
My point is the name of the site is even mac rumors so posting rumors should be expected, I do agree that rumors should not be taken as fact.

Not to mention it diminishes any responsibility of the then president of the US.
Sad that most of the "channels", aka website content streaming, are the equivalent to B rated movies. There is only a handful of channels/apps most people would use. Netflix, Smithsonian, TED Talks, YouTube, but channels like Young Hollywood, give me a break!!! Is that the best Apple can offer? That's not worth buying an AppleTV for.
Would love to access HBO Go and Showtime Anytime but my cable company Charter Communication are idiots. Also who cares about this new channels I have 0 interest in them, would be nice if Apple added Amazon Prime it is a shame they are not or it least have their own movie/TV Show streaming like Amazon Prime and Netflix.
And what happened with CW channel?
----------
Yeah but Netflix is mostly B Rated movies also when was the last time you saw any good Horror or Sci-Fi movies added or even Anime. Netflix is pretty much junk for Documentaries now on and not about movies like the good old days, as much as I enjoy their original series I also enjoy movies.

If Apple keeps adding worthless channels like this Apple TV will be just like cable.
or just like the Roku. I like my Roku but, 90+% of the channels are not worth the space they take up on the screen.
It'll be a separate product, but available in three different colours and two sizes with a range of remotes to choose from to match your living room decor.
And if the content owners already have deals in place with other providers and do not want to deal with Apple, What do you expect Apple to do about it?
----------
For what apps? The Apple TV doesn't currently have apps.
I want to know why the iPlayer is still missing, at some stage the BBC must have written it off and wont pick it up again.
Then again it's also missing like 4OD and ITV, and all the other devices have those too. Maybe Apple just doesn't care enough or wants to focus on international platforms, if they are it's pretty **** for us.
