    They kinda have that now.  The iMac is kinda like a TV.  They just need some kind of tuner to attach to it.

    I don't think their hardware is junk, especially the Fire TV, but I do think the Amazon move is a low point. They are not going to increase sales of anything doing this. It's probably related tp the politics on in-app purchases.

    There was once an iMac type Apple computer with a built in turner. It was a flop. Antennae, tuners, etc... are not in Apple's crystal ball, I suspect. They are considered antiques.

    Wonder if we have any chance of seeing a TWC App for IPTV? Would rather by a new Apple TV vs a Roku

    Considering that they are limiting apps to 200MB and not allowing any local app data storage,  I think most people can easily get by with the 32GB model.

    I just noticed that App Store now shows app video and screenshot in landscape format (last visited pre-iOS 9.1). With Guitar Hero, Transistor, Shadowpulse and Afterpulse (new AppleTV announcement event games) I can deduce that those apps that started to show previews in landscape format are going to be the first few apps to launch on Apple TV. I also presume that's why Guitar Hero is £40.00 as it is multiplatform from iPhone, iPod, iPad and AppleTV. Get excited folks!
