Why did Apple give up on the home?
I dont even remember when I bought our current apple tv but it was quite a while ago. It still works but its always more frustrating than it really feels like it needs to be. Outside of my phone its clearly the piece of technology that we use the most, especially with the kid here.
It would be an easy decision to upgrade but I worry that Apple just doesnt really care about this space anymore. I was looking at the most recent Roku and Fire TV options and even the new Google TV and they seem to be compelling. The problem is none of them are a clear homerun either. Theres a mess of channels available since the Roku doesnt have HBO max or maybe that was amazon and it makes me feel like I need to do my own breakdown of the pros and cons to make the best decision.
What was always exciting about apple before this is as an apple customer you felt like you didnt have to all that work. You felt confident that Apple was making the best version of X so you almost never even considered another product.
Maybe its good that Apples options arent compelling, maybe I need to break out of my apple bubble and see what Google is up to here. Its not like its a $1,000 investment, I can always switch back if i hate it.
We'll see if Apple can impress me tomorrow, but im not holding my breath.
