So, you can pay for Apple TV+, just like you always could, now through another app. Brilliant.
I'm hopeful that we'll eventually be able to separate the app itself from the license to view certain content. Some apps are shit with good content, and some apps are great with insufficient content.
I'd love to be able to have a one-stop shop for browsing or searching for shows and movies that I have access to, whether it's through my Netflix/Amazon/Disney/Hulu/Peacock/Apple/Paramount subscription or whatever. Amazon seems intent on trying to make it happen, but I'd personally prefer that the actual device (Apple TV, Chromecast or whatever it's replacement is called, Roku, XBox, Samsung TV) to just have it on the home screen when you turn it on.

Apple doesn't let me add another profile to the app so we can watch the same show in different paces with family members, since I don't own any Apple devices. I'll be more than happy to shitcan any and all of their apps if possible. Some of the content is top notch, though.
Apple TV has the “Up Next” feature which helps as the latest tv show episodes from all your apps are on the Home Screen. Even when you search it gives options from different apps. However, it’s painful for me on a mobile device to have so many apps installed, which take up a lot of space.
Yeah, Google does the same thing, but it launches the specific app in order to play from that screen (and not every app handles that gracefully).
What's interesting about Amazon is that they play the actual content in the same app, even when licensed through a subscription with another service.
Apple TV handles it the same way. Netflix doesn’t work because they want you to open the app and scroll through multiple rows to resume watching.
Are you required to subscribe through Prime or can I add any subscription?

I think it only works with services subscribed through Amazon.
The coolest thing about this is it appears you can watch said content through the Prime Video App, which will open Apple TV to all the android mobile users.
I'd say this is good for them. If course I don't have Amazon Prime anymore so...
I did not like ted lasso
Severance, though
I have to rewatch it again before season 2 because of goldfish memory
Waffle party!
One of the rare times I pirated a show and it was so good I subscribed and watched it again in the hopes they would make more of it.
I always thought I wouldn’t (I don’t like soccer at all), but gave it a shot. Then I binged it, cause I got hooked. Still don’t like soccer, but the series was amazing.
I felt there was a steady decline after season 1. Season 1 was near perfect then they started to stretch themselves too thin with all these C D and F plots. There were some highlights though like the coach beard episode and Amsterdam.
You are perfect as you are.
