That's not a deal.
Still waiting on the app to be added to my Samsung smart TV that I bought only last year. Don’t understand why seemingly the model after mine got it, but my TV apparently can’t handle it?
Maybe not directly but might advise people if it means that they can now watch their Apple film/tv purchases on their TV, in case they don't have an Apple TV device, but do have a Roku.
Will it be available on a now tv stick? They are Roku aren’t they?
Thanks, but I already have Netflix, Amazon Prime and a TV licence. They …Thanks, but I already have Netflix, Amazon Prime and a TV licence. They are late to the party and I don't fancy another bill. There's only so much TV a person can watch and/or pay for. If people support fragmentation in the market then it will make things more expensive for consumers who will need to subscribe to multiple services. For that reason I will be avoiding Apple TV and Disney.

They are stripped down Roku's, so no
Thanks

The flexibility of these services allows you to swap around at will, catch up on the latest shows then move on. Couple of months on Netflix, a month of Apple TV, then a month of Disney+ then maybe give Britbox a go before heading back to Netflix.
The only constant for me is Prime Video because I get the yearly Prime subscription.

I have a roku and wasn't aware of this - so it's a notification for roku users - thanks OP!

You missed out Britbox as well
So no need for the physical boxes now?
