Apple TV+ to launch as for-pay subscription service, Cook suggests

This one isn't complicated. At all. Netflix, Hulu, Amazon, HBO, Disney....these services are identical in the sense that: their bread and butter, the content that people actually pay for, is the wealth of content they have licensed or purchased, and provide. Their original content is just a microscopic supplement that few people actually care about and that no one anywhere is being asked to pay for by itself. Disney is the newest player here, but after spending ungodly amounts of its own money to buy up every property they could convince people to sell...they now have a somewhat decent catalog for their own service (but not enough to command higher end market prices).
Somehow this is being missed in the conversation. Apple has not announced plans to include iTunes Store content (movies and tv) with AppleTV+. If they planned to do that, it would be the first thing they talked about, because people would actually want to pay for that. Apple is the only player operating under the delusion that they can produce original content, and only original content, and actually sell it.
No one cares about any of Apple's original content, and that is all they're offering. -
