Apple can make TV+ ubiquitous through brute force

[ad_1] No, Apple’s best weapon will be its near ubiquity. For one, there are hundreds of millions of iPhones, iPads, Macs and Apple TVs already in people’s homes.

Twitch finally releases Apple TV app as public beta

[ad_1] It’s been easy to find official Twitch apps for consoles, mobile devices and a handful of media hubs, but Apple TV owners haven’t had any such luck — you’ve had to turn to third-party apps that don’t quite match the experience you find elsewhere.
