You'll lose access as soon as you stop using Apple devices.
- ninkendo 3y agoThat’s probably the most realistic way I’d lose access, yes. But so far no competing set top box has been able to beat the ATV in the overall experience, so I’ve been continuing to use it by choice. Every time I go to a friends house and experience how terrible all the competing bargain bin chromecast/shield/fireTV shit is, watching every button press take seconds to result in a screen update, taking ages to type in anything (vs ATV’s dictation or just the built in remote app on iOS) I feel more and more confident in this. The current gen ATV is ridiculously responsive and quick by comparison.
- lern_too_spel 3y agoThe clunky LRUD interaction model is much slower than simply finding what you like on your phone and casting, which even my TV supports.
- easton 3y agoApple has apps for other platforms that at least allow playback of stuff you’ve bought, even if you can’t buy more. I’ve watched mad men through on a Fire TV on Apple TV, worked fine.

- lern_too_spel 3y agoAs I said, it doesn't work on Android phones. This app is only compatible with AndroidTV, and even there, the reviews are terrible.
