....I purchased the new Apple TV 4 thinking it was going to come out with some awesome deals from cable companies, but now that Apple has abandon that idea for a while, whats the purpose of keeping the damn 4th generation Apple TV? That's what I get for jumping in my car, going to my local Apple store and getting that Apple TV a couple of days after it was released.....I should have listened to my friends and picked up the new Roku 4 instead.....

Since when did you expect Cable company's to give Apple awesome deals? That's cutting directly into their buisness. Now if you're talking about the content creators, they want to much also. They want all their channels BUNDLED into the deal. You want ABC, they want to bundle ABC Family and ESPN and Disney and the all the rest, and forcing you to pay more for it all. Same with others turning what Apple wants, a cheap starting bundle into a costly bundle deal. So really, instead of paying Comcast a bunch of money for TV service, You're now paying Apple a bunch of money for TV service and nothing has changed. What's the point? Getting a ROKU 4? What does that get you? I have 3 ROKU's myself and I haven't used mine since I got the Apple TV 4. I guess the ROKU 4 gets you 4K support, but unless you have a 120" or larger TV, 4K is a Joke, and streaming 4K content is a even bigger joke then so called 1080P streaming content as it's sure not Blu-Ray quality. Yet it looks just fine for most people because people already have to small of a HDTV for the distance they sit and can't se the better detail anyway. 4K is even more worthless. 4K is what you're watching on a HUGE screen when you do to the Movie Theater. Have one of those at home? Unless you sit 1 foot in front of the screen like for a computer monitor.
