I've often wondered if the whole ad-supported concept could be remade. Media since early radio has relied on ads as part of the economic model, and people are sort of used to the concept. Where people really get annoyed is when the ads become intrus…

This is an actual question: what new device has Apple offered in the past where this happened? IOW, the premium version came out, and then afterwards a less expensive option was offered shortly thereafter. I'm not convinced this is Apple's plan at a…

Tim seems to be skipping comment about that actor's guild strike and what plans they have to pay the people that made that (record breaking services) ATV+ content.

I predict that Tim will announce they made a Pro level metric Ultra fuckktonne of money.
