- andsoitis 1y agoThere's no "need" to get rid of the hardware (not sure whether you are talking from a personal or from an Apple-the-company POV). However, for Apple TV (the service) to be enjoyed by millions of people worldwide (presumably the goal), then you cannot rely on Apple TV (the hardware). To be sure, Apple doesn't rely on Apple TV (the hardware) for people to use Apple TV (the service), since their Appel TV (the app) is available on all the major TV and streaming devices (which is where most people around the world watch TV shows and movies). I'm just saying that Apple TV (the hardware) doesn't seem like something worthwhile keeping alive. It isn't a force in gaming and Apple TV (the service) has to be available on non-Apple hardware for it to succeed. So Apple TV (the hardware) doesn't serve a strategic purpose. Whether or not Apple TV (the hardware) is the "best streaming device" is debatable, but to each their own.
