How would you improve tvOS?

All you have to do here is hit the play button when you have highlighted the movie you want. It will skip any iTunes extras on the film and just start playback.

Is that right? Could have sworn I'd tried that before - oh well, thanks for letting me know

I may be wrong, haven't tried it in a while but I know it did it with the older Apple TV That's something I've always liked about iTunes movies, you can skip all the unnecessary junk if you like unlike DVD's

• Go back to putting our own movies in a Movies menu, our own TV Shows in a TV Show menu, etc. "Computers" is not intuitive.

What do u mean by this? They are in 'Computers' in Apple TV 3 as well, which is for your own movies hosted locally..

Movies, TV shows purchases is for stuff you've purchased on iTunes Store from Apple TV.

Original TV did NOT prioritize renting over our own stuff. So our own movies were in "Movies," our own TV shows were in "TV Shows." etc. That incarnation looked like they put UI and intuitiveness first in how they designed the software. One could rent movies & TV shows too and the rental options appeared in the same menus.

Then, they decided to "improve" on that by jettisoning many great features of the first generation and shifting focus on maximizing profits instead of UI & intuitiveness.

If you showed the main menu to anyone unfamiliar with the new Apple and asked them where they would expect to find a person's movies, do you think they would guess "Movies" (menu) or "Computers"? How about TV Shows?
