If Apple can keep it at $5, yeah. I’m not sure why Apple TV at $5 would make more sense than any other major streamer (or at least HBO, Disney+ (depending on who you are), Netflix, or Hulu at $8 with ads. Apple TV doesn’t have a negative reputation yet. Imo that is helped by their limited scope (Apple users only) and low price as you mentioned. It still doesn’t and doesn’t have any immediate plans to try to get that much bigger (based on their budget). OTOH, when every one else has gone to at least $10 even with ads, then yeah $5 for Apple TV is crazy cheap. Though a ton of people have Amazon Prime and it doesn’t appear to get talked about too much or be a major deal for Amazon. They’re sinking a good amount of money into it too (thinking LOTR show and MGM $8B acquisition). Netflix specifically has gotten a particularly bad reputation on HN in recent years. The number of comments relentlessly shitting on it have gone up a lot. Much like Apple TV’s general rep on HN is usually neutral/on the outside or positive.
