Tim Cook being 'intrusive' to Hollywood in quest for family-friendly video fare
Apple should not be in the content creation space. It’s not their forte, it’s not their brand and they aren’t cut out for the loose messiness required. Micromanaging content guarantees awful, anodyne output. They should stick to licensing and curating.

Apple to reportedly reduce new hires amidst slumping iPhone sales
Meh, considering that Netflix’s entire market cap is $153.24B and Apple brought in REVENUE of $266B in in 2018 alone, it’s not that big of a bet for the company.

Something like Apple Car would be a big bet, video is more along the lines of Music.aaarrrgggh said:

Apple sticking to family-friendly video efforts to avoid offense from viewers

New HomePod, 'AirPods 2,' death of 3D Touch all expected in 2019
