Pray tell, what does the Apple TV box do? I cannot get my head around it.

It’s just a smart box really for all your streaming services, it has local storage so that you can download onto it and take it with you somewhere without an internet connection but it’s affa pricey for what it is imo.

It’s good for games too apparently, think you can connect a PS4 controller or Xbox controller for use with supported App Store games.

Aye, that’s the thing. It makes me think I’m missing an obvious feature or something.

Don’t think you are, only difference from like a fire stick is access to the App Store for games and the local storage I think. The remotes are as wee and thin they’re easy lost too apparently.

I have an old one but have an Amazon firestick too. Aye the remote for the Apple TV is a pain. Searching something on youtube takes ages. Maybe been updated since I got mine though
