Yes of course. No one has everything itunes does. Not by a long shot.

Nope, 100% iTunes. I don't rip because I got rid of practially my entire DVD and blu-ray collection a long time ago (except for a couple dozen DVDs and blu-rays because that were never released digitally). Went (almost) entirely digital and haven't looked back.

So the TV app half works on my iPhone but is blank on my iPad Pro. My iTunes purchases show on my iPhone but is blank on the iPad. Everytime I restart my device it moves the Videos app back to the last page. The Connect my apps doesn't work on either device though.
Well that app went into my " Stuff" folder. All it was, was a new app for purchases only and a store. Whoopee! I'll stick with "Videos" which so far does the same, and let's me access Home Sharing (albeit not very well). The TV app doesn't offer HS.
Btw, if you have to re-log into Home Sharing like I did, you have to do it via Music pane (in Settings), as it seems to be gone from the Video pane.

I use Xfinity and Amazon prime I need Apple with that and then I'll use it… Oh and also I need a high video quality for my HDTV. It's exciting if they can do everything they promise, but they will need cooperation from a lot of people.
No, but they can make a deal for us! Otherwise we use other apps and the idea of one app blows up
Now I just need my Apple TV to record like a TiVo...that would be perfect!

I disagree, but I do think Apple needs to be a bit bolder in their approach. The new app should become the default home screen on tvOS. Then just tell people to get on board or risk watching someone else do so and become succesfull.
In the long run Netflix succeeds or loses based on their content anyhow. So they should just embrace this and continue to focus on original content.
This comment might be useful for you:
This article should help with what they're trying to achieve dictionary wise (as well as other areas that this tech will improve, such as Siri):

They are on the Bluetooth SIG: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bluetooth_Special_Interest_Group. They don't have the power to do what they want with the standard.
The W1 chip also does a lot of good work and is aimed at doing exactly what you want by improving the Bluetooth experience.
Apple is exactly the same as it has been for a long time. They do things their own way. Still aiming for thin, still aiming for a wireless future, still trying to vertically integrate. Still generally pricey compared to competitors spec for spec, but when you throw in the other things like Apple Store support, respect for privacy, build quality etc, I am happy to pay it.
And things that have improved over the last few years - things like charitable contribution, larger spend on green initiatives and addition of (IMO) important things like ResearchKit.

At its October 27 Mac-centric event, Apple announced a new "TV" app, which is designed to serve as a sort of TV guide, helping users discover new content and find TV shows and movies to watch. The TV app is meant to work across multiple devices, including iOS devices and the Apple TV, and as of today the TV app is available in the iOS 10.2 beta.
Apple's new TV app works hand-in-hand with features like Siri Live Tune-In and Single Sign-On, simplifying the television-watching experience.
In addition to a Library section that displays all the iTunes content a user has purchased, the TV app also features a "Watch Now" section that houses a collection of TV shows and movies from iTunes and other television apps a user has installed on an Apple TV or iOS device.
An Up Next feature keeps track of TV shows and movies across devices so you can pick up where you were watching, whether in the middle of a movie or the next episode of a TV show, and there are lists of curated and trending TV shows and movies.
A dedicated store lets users purchase content from iTunes or from other sources like HBO Go. The Store section also lets users sign in with their TV provider to find content available through an authenticated cable subscription.
Apple's release notes state that the TV app isn't yet fully functional, and it does not appear to be available in the tvOS 10.1 beta just yet. Apple has said the TV app will see an official release in December.

No TV APP here in the UK !!

Deleting. Can't see any of the 98% of tv shows and Movies that are non-apple store on my mac mini server. This plus the latest round of unimaginative hardware at mega premium prices = time to look at the non-apple competition.
No, I don't want to see a schedule. I get to watch TV for about 30 minutes per day and that is usually over multiple sessions and at variable times. Netflix is my go to streaming service. I don't watch scheduled programming. "TV" is a very broad term these days and I consider YouTube to be part of my tv usage.
I don't stream illegally. You don't seem to have the SJW approach of some people here but I still can't understand why this is the first point you made. Or why it came up at all. For what it's worth I cut my cable in 2003 and reallocated that money to physical DVD rentals. There were even a few years when I didn't have Internet or tv service at all and I watched plenty of tv. Not that anyone wants to hear this but you brought up the topic. I'd guess about half of the people in my office do stream illegally and I don't make a point of setting them straight nor do I see why anyone else should.
It IS the videos app with a new appdelegate. Same id and everything. The "videos" app is now a new version of the same app, with the original appdelegate. They just compile twice with different #ifdef's triggered, looks like.
Got no TV app on my iPhone 6S. Am in UK is this why?
Noticed Emergency SOS setting promoted under general. Some camera settings changes. But no TV app.
[doublepost=1478637247][/doublepost]
Yes I do. Because there are somethings that are not on netflix or not in UK. Babylon 5 is what i own in full on iTunes.
I don't have it either on my 6s, but my ATV4 isn't on the PB. Maybe both devices need to be on the beta?
