It looked shitty when it happened with Amazon and Apple
- 19eightyfour 9y agoCould you elaborate on what happened? I don't know about this.
- kalleboo 9y agoI think it's referring to them removing the AppleTV from amazon.com as well as not supporting playback of Amazon Video on the AppleTV https://www.wired.com/2015/10/amazon-apple-tv-chromecast/ https://www.wired.com/2015/10/amazon-apple-tv-chromecast/ The latter decision has been reversed now though https://techcrunch.com/2017/06/05/amazons-prime-video-app-is-coming-to-apple-tv/ https://techcrunch.com/2017/06/05/amazons-prime-video-app-is...
- Longhanks 9y agoAlso, it isn't really Apple's fault for not building an Amazon video app, is it? I mean, it's not like they denied them access to the App Store. I found this to be really stupid behavior of Amazon. Seemed like they only wanted to push their competing product (Fire TV). It's good they figured things out, though. A Prime Video app was announced at WWDC.
