Of course.
Should it ever come to Europe, though, I hope Apple will be smart enough to copy some of Netflix's best features:
- Original language versions (everything from English over Korean over Swedish...)
- Original language subtitles (oh yeah, when you're hearing impaired like I am, this is something you will really appreciate -- and preferably English subtitles for everything even if it's not the original language)
Yeah, guess what -- my native language is German, but I just hate dubbed movies.
And there's one more thing: I need to be able to watch that content on my Amazon Fire Stick AND in the Firefox web browser on Ubuntu Linux. Yes, I can do that with Netflix. And yes, it's a deal breaker if that doesn't work. Why? Because I use neither Windows nor macOS at home. (Nah, it's not entirely true -- I have a Blue Iris server running to control my IP cameras, but that's not what I use for work or web surfing or entertainment.)
If Apple will have an attractive content library that meets all those requirements AND at the same time won't be more expensive than Netflix, then this could actually be interesting.
But my guess is: iOS first, maybe lackluster macOS support, no Linux support whatsoever, and only family friendly Disney-like content, probably only in crappy localized versions and definitely without subtitles.

omg! there are still humans who watch tv ?
Yeah, that's interesting. I quit doing that... 20 years ago. And no, I'm not kidding or exaggerating. I haven't watched "traditional" TV in two decades. DVDs, sure. Downloaded/offline movies, of course. Streaming, absolutely. But TV? Absolutely not. I don't even recognize any of those faces anymore that I sometimes see being advertised (in magazines or online articles) as "TV stars". You wouldn't believe how inefficient a lot of those ads are if you don't know any of these so-called prominent persons anymore...
