Whats the point in having apple TV if I have to rent the good movies either way? If the newer movies were included like with disney plus then I wouldn’t mind the mid TV shows so much but since there u still have to rent it seems like a total scam to pay for a subscription.
It’s a common mistake to equate the iTunes Store, with its millions of titles available to buy/rent with Apple TV+, which is the streaming service. They both will appear in your Apple TV device, but are completely unrelated.
iTunes Store does not equal Apple TV+.
This is why I cancelled my TV+. If I want the iTunes store, I know where to find it, I just want to see what’s available with Apple TV+ and you can’t do that.
Isn’t that what the free trials are for? No other streaming service I know of does that, gives you a free trial with purchase.
If every title you’re seeing on the iTunes store was included in the subscription service, then Netflix, Prime, Disney+, Peacock would all have been bankrupted years ago. iTunes has the majority of TV Shows and Movies that have ever existed in its store. How would you be getting those for ten dollars a month?
Sounds like you’re talking about Apple TV+ stream and not the Apple TV box.
Apple TV+ is pretty much only the exclusives they make for the service, they release a few at the movie theaters so they can be eligible for some awards, but other than that you’re only option to watch them is Apple TV+.
The neat thing about the service is… If you don’t want to watch the shows and movies on it, you don’t have to subscribe!
If you pay for the service, there is nothing on it for you to rent, it comes with the service. You’re just confused and for some reason think everything available to rent on the Apple Store should be available for free within AppleTV+. Obviously that would not be the case. Disney+ has Disney content. AppleTV+ has Apple content. Disney does not offer a store to buy movies and shows, Apple does. The sub is called AppleTV, not AppleTV+, so yes, it’s a sub for the set top box. “A community for discussion about the Apple TV family of devices.” It’s obviously not a scam, that doesn’t even make sense.
They’ve clearly misconstrued AppleTV+ with iTunes, and assumed a subscription to one granted them full access to the other.
Honestly, at this point, I’ve seen enough of these posts and heard first hand (especially from older folks I know) the confusion between AppleTV (the box) and AppleTV+ (the service, and what it actually even is) that this is squarely apple’s fault. It’s a branding issue. Apple needs to consider rebranding one or both of these products and better explain to the layman that AppleTV+ is just a section of the AppleTV app and not the whole app.
“I want to watch Apple TV+ on my Apple TV app on my Apple TV 4K” has quite the ring to it, not confusing at all /s
Person has free trial. Doesn’t dog it. Comes here to bitch and whine?
Why not simply cancel and go about your day? I bet you’re a blast a parties!
