Do you know many families? I can’t really think of one in my bubble without an Apple One subscription at this point except for the Spotify holdouts.
Bundling the new HBO with Apple Music has got to be very easy to sell.
Apple TV 4K boxes also stream TV+ at a much higher bit rate than any other service but that’s a bit enthusiast.
- freddie_mercury 2y agoI don't know a single person in my country with an Apple One subscription. That's 100 million people right there.
- aegypti 2y agoI don’t know if your country has very many upper middle class WEIRD families entirely embedded into the Apple ecosystem, but it’s become noticeably more common here post Ted Lasso era I think.
- freddie_mercury 2y agoI don't think Apple makes any content that isn't for Americans do they? I guess Slow Horses is British but very little of what they air has any real appeal in Asia so no one is going to pay for it.
- alephnerd 2y agoPachinko was big in South Korea when both season 1 and 2 were released, and plenty of ad time was given to it in SK. Arguably Tehran was in a similar position as well, but it was an already existing show on Kan 11 that Apple got the international licensing rights for - same way HBO Max got Sha'at Ne'ila/Valley of Tears.
- nxobject 2y agoDon't forget HBO's Homeland and Hatufim/Prisoners of War.
- MagicMoonlight 2y agoHow many people do you know?
- FireBeyond 2y agoI know plenty of families. Including my own. Three of us, with iPhone 16s. Two of us with recent iPads. Three of us with Apple Watches. There's 5 MBPs. Three Apple TV 4Ks, a Mac Studio. And no Apple One. "Spotify holdouts" kinda makes it sound like you see them as misguided. I have no love for Spotify. I love Rdio (RIP). Tidal (I loved, but can't see lasting much longer, but it pays quite a bit more to artists than Apple, and a LOT more than Spotify). Apple TV has a few good original shows. > Bundling the new HBO with Apple Music has got to be very easy to sell. Uhh, sure. https://music.apple.com/us/curator/hbo-max/1536480621 https://music.apple.com/us/curator/hbo-max/1536480621 - oh good, I can listen to the soundtrack to.... FBoy Island, 12 Dates of Christmas, and some of the reality TV stars of ... Sweet Life: Los Angeles? Maybe we have different definitions of "very easy sell". I'm surprised Apple Arcade is still a thing. But there it is across all Apple One tiers. Meanwhile to get Fitness and News you have to go to the Premier tier.
