A couple issues with this article (and most of the ones recently). I'm pretty sure they are wrong about the cost thing. Comcast will have to make thier programming available at a cost comparable to what they charge other companies like Dish Netwo…

What many here are failing to realize is that it isn't Apple/Comcast/DirecTV etc really coming up with these bundles (at least not partially). A lot of these bundles happen because one company owns many networks. For example don't expect to be ab…

I know with HBO Go you can log in at different locations even at the same time. People online talked about giving out their logins/passwords to firends and HBO was aware and ok with it. Not sure if that will happen with this though. Wouldn't be s…

I am not suprised about not getting a 4K version. That tech is still too early in it's development. HDMI 2.0/HDCP2.2 chips are just now becoming available for TVs/AV receivers and Apple would probably have a hard time getting enough of them, and w…

This price really suprises me. I'm wondering what will happen to the cable/satellite companies prices. DirecTV charges $18/month right now, I may cancel and switch to HBO Now if they don't keep giving me discounts on it (3 months free right now).

Really disappointed that they lead off with the AppleTV, but didn't update the hardware at all. What a tease. The price cut is nice, but I'm still not sure if I will bother picking up any more until there is a hardware update.

I don't buy this story either. As far as I can tell when you add a card to apple pay you have to enter the security code number from the back of the card (every card I have added required it). So how are these thieves getting that number? If they…

And how much is this really going to help these drivers once they realize they are going to have to pay $4/hr in Union dues. California as a whole, and the Bay Area especially need to look into why their cost of living is so high and fix that. You…

I have been hoping for something like this for a while, although I would like to see it work over WiFi. For example, I think it would be great if you could play a movie on one iPad/iPhone and have the same movie show up on other nearby iPad/iPhone…
