    Are you kidding me?! The only reason I use Apple TV is to watch Youtube?! I have several of these devices now I have to replace all of them. This is one way these greedy companies keep their fingers in your pockets, but forcing you to upgrade and by new products.

    I'll use the iphone app that allows me to watch video downloaded to my phone on my TV using the wifi feature

    In the future just don't buy these type of products unless they allow the installation and updating of apps. This would never happen on a device like the MINIX A8-H Plus / Z64, where you can install what you need, waiting for a company to update a integrated application just isn't worth the frustration.

    Just don't buy another device in which you can't install the apps that you want. Everyone here might hate Android but by goodness in a TV set-box it's pretty fantastic. I started out with a Apple TV and enjoyed it but after buying the Minix I honestly couldn't own another TV device that I didn't have complete control over or couldn't at least install Kodi (XBMC), an absolute must have app for any such device.

    BAD APPLE!

    BAD, BAD, BAD Apple. You should not do that to customers after they have purchased it and some specifically for Youtube viewing capability.

    Again -- BAD BAD BAD APPLE.

    This is very very poor behavior to subject your customers to. You do not take away functionality when it has already been purchased. Especially when some may have purchased AppleTV specifically for YouTube. You might have opened yourselves for for false advertising over this one.

    BAD BAD BAD APPLE.

    Eliminating functionality from a device already sold is a very bad thing to do to customers.  You may have opened yourselves for false marketing as well.

     

    BAD APPLE.
