[mattburley7]

they could not come up with a better app name then TV?

we have apple tv and now tv lol

 

[itsmilo]

Are they explaning how to use a remote? Oh my gooood

 

[DevNull0]

I don't think Timmy even knows what TV is. Unified experience my ass.

All my TV is on my cable box. Until I can watch those channels on Apple TV as easily as calling up a channel on the cable box, the Apple TV is a fringe device that will never be used.

I certainly don't want to screw around with tech when watching TV. I just want to sit back and watch TV.

What a freaking waste of time. Looks like they are killing time to minimize the hardware announcements.

 

[smorrissey]

Watch MORE TV................no thx.

 

[Rogifan]

This TV app should be the home screen, not an app you have to launch.

 

[Barrierfreeman]

1. The menu looks terrible.
2. SkyQ does this better.
3. Again, the UI looks very bland.

 

[PilotC150]

When are we going to get multiple user profiles on the Apple TV? Why should my "Watch Now" be filled with the shows that my wife and kids have watched recently?

 

[keysofanxiety]

"True story"

*tumbleweed*

 

[RedTomato]

Stop going on about watching the bloody TV - save that for the iOS keynotes. OSX is what I use when I'm making money / creating content. Tell us new and better ways of making money & creating content - that's what I'm here for.

 

[shyam09]

That's so sad. She tried to make a joke about Real Housewives but no one laughed.

 

[redheeler]

I get the feeling they are wasting time - clearly not many new products to announce

Can probably drop all hope of a Mac Pro or Mac mini update by this point.

 

[jdillings]

"Store" is where you add new content from apps

 

[WinstonRumfoord]

I will literally never use this, and I imagine I fall pretty squarely in their target demographic. The only thing Apple TV really needs to do is to be a conduit for your phone. I don't understand why the TV unit itself needs all this crap, when the phone could just as easily be the brains directing the TV box.

 

[pjarvi]

In walks the first token female engineer.

Will Apple trot out more women than Microsoft though, that is the real question.

 

[Nr123*123]

Oh, I can just pick up where I left off......Netflix in 2014

 

[citysnaps]

starting to get REALLY pissed

You let a company and its CEO have that much power over you?

 

[Stella]

So "Hello Again" wasn't related to releasing new innovative laptops.. instead , so Timmy can bore the **** out of the viewing audience...

 

[soupcan]

Can we get to the interesting stuff please?

 

[RightMACatU]

Went to the can for the last 15 minutes... Clearly had a better time there than here

 

[TheHorrorNerd]

Tim Cook is slowing it down to pad this keynote because there is no substance...

 

[Lone Deranger]

Content consumption here, content consumption there..... what about something for content creators Tim?! The content you want to serve your audience isn't going to develop itself. Give us creators some new Macs!!

 

[Ries]

Look, they made a crappy a netflix! And a another App worthless outside the US.

 

[PJM83]

With 5 minutes left Tim will announce no more macs! get an ipad! It's all you need!

 

[The Game 161]

How is this tv app any different to the home screen?

 

[Soni Sanjay]

Tim: And that will be all, folks. Thank you for coming.

 

[Icaras]

Awesome. I will definitely be using the TV app quite frequently.
