I had to go back to cable because I couldn't get my elderly father who lives with me to accept streaming TV. It was too unreliable (and trust me I've tried every service, PS Vue had the least problems) especially during live sporting events like Mon…

Are you one of the single-digit percentage of Mac customers who actually own a Mac Pro? If not, why complain? I am a 2010 Mac mini owner who doesn't want the buy the current one because a new one may be in the pipe. 2 1/2 years is a long tim…

Apple doesn't understand… Jobs could be "hard line" with the music industry in the early 2000s because Napster (file sharing) had them on their knees. But, the content providers have the upper hand in this situation. They are not the ones in need an…

Change your Apple ID password and turn on Two-step verification to prevent any further nonsense.

Smart to announce these through press releases. It avoids the "non-event" event criticisms.

As Google Glass proved… Society doesn't want it. The users were not called Glassholes for nothing.

Um, aren't women in the USA supposed to not buy anything today? Apple is missing the point.

MplsP said: A bump in resolution hardly seems to justify an entirely new version, but if you think about it, 4K resolution is a requirement to keep it a viable product and that mostly likely needs new display hardware. Otherwise, Apple TV is …

You know what Apple? Instead of wasting your time on this type of crap… How about actually upgrading and developing Siri's backend to be faster and more knowledgable? I mean, Siri's response time is atrocious compared to Amazon Alexa (even when both…

How many W1 wireless headphones are there to choose from? Fifty? Or just two? At least 3: Beats X, AirPods, and Beats Solo 3 wireless. So, there.

I don't think Apple has to develop games but it would be nice if they didn't give away the market to MS and Sony as I don't like their consoles. Shame. Resident Evil 7 VR for the PS4 is pretty damn amazing!

Bailed after the first month. The Direct TV Now service would fail to work or stutter quite badly (and I have 100MB down). Got a Fire TV stick for my trouble, though. So far, for overall picture quality and reliability, PlayStation Vue has them all …
