Netflix is far ahead of the competition in terms of churn reduction.
They know that by releasing one *original* movie per week, they’re getting a solid lock-in in their audience.
Disney, HBO Max, Apple TV+ growth will remain “seasonal”, until they fix release cadence.

Hey @NBA what about updating your Apple TV app? Sound and image are not matching after a couple of minutes. Makes games not easy to watch. Recurring problem!! Please!! Service is expensive. Thanks.

Movies you need to watch if you haven’t already:
“Locked Down” available on HBO Max

@FUNimation @FunimationHelp your Apple TV app is broken; It doesn’t sync with a person’s video preferences from the website. This makes mature content entirely inaccessible, which by the way is most of your content. https://t.co/ZoWkTmZL9x

Interesting problem for streamers. I think HBO and Disney have a big enough basket of content to justify paying for while idle - especially Disney. But I’ve signed up for and cancelled Apple TV multiple times already

@Nina_Metz I have Hulu, YoutubeTV, Disney+, HBOMax, AppleTV, and Netflix. You can get up past five pretty quickly if you have certain things you have to watch.
Problem is, if they don’t have anything else to lock me in, I’ll cancel until next season.

This is a good time to remind us all: cancel that Apple TV subscription. You don’t use it anyway.
What is the last HBO, Netflix, or Disney show you watched? Cut those cords if you need to.

Nothing ruins a productive morning quite like your Boomer parent frantically texting that they can’t redeem the Amazon Prime membership you gifted them a month ago. Actually, maybe that’s second to “I’m having a problem with the AppleTV.”

@AppleTV any fix for episodes not auto playing, and for getting “how to watch,” on episodes where I’ve bought the entire series? On Firestick, everything’s up to date. ☺️

@michaelkammes Fun thing I learned trying to watch season 2 of The Boys: I had to connect my 4K Apple TV directly to one of the TV’s HDMI ports in order to get UHD picture to work. There was an HDMI handshake issue if I went through my receiver first (which I’ve always done in the past)

Found out that my mom hates the apple tv remote so much that she's barely watched tv since we got it for her (a year ago). Been trying to help her use it and realized that the real issue is the trackpad - infuriating if you have hands with any sort of arthritis

@wonder100855026 I have Netflix, Amazon Prime and Apple TV+. They all work 100% with no issues and the UI is great. Showmax is not useable at times and it’s the most expensive from all. The problem is that DSTV/Showmax own the rights for certain sports/programs here, so can’t use another service

@NewoGame That would help! For me the issue with the Apple TV remote is that it pretty much symmetrical top-to-bottom, at least by touch, so I pick it up (correctly, buttons facing up) but instead of pressing volume I press menu/siri. ARGH! https://t.co/SYAs9qA2bx

Come on @Apple, Apple TV app on Apple TV has a watched indicator but doesn’t auto select last unlatched episode of a series... so you have to scroll through hundreds of episodes in large series. Unbelievably annoying - give me access to source and I’ll fix it for free. Aaargh.
