☆ The Apple TV Set is an idea whose time will never come
▼ + stars: | 2024-11-18 | by ( Peter Kafka | ) www.businessinsider.com time to read: +4 min

That's for good reason: An Apple TV set didn't make sense years ago. But in theory, if that goes well, then maybe Apple will be more interested in chasing an Actual TV Set. Apple still sells a dedicated Apple TV box, which you can plug into any TV to transform it into an "Apple TV." AdvertisementYou can debate whether Apple TV+ is actually successful — its movie strategy seems … challenged — but it at least makes sense strategically: Apple TV+ is supposed to generate recurring monthly revenue, and Apple is all about recurring monthly revenue as part of its "services" push. A TV set — even the most awesome TV set — would be a one-and-done proposition for Apple.

☆ Apple is revisiting a scrapped idea from its Steve Jobs era
▼ + stars: | 2024-11-18 | by ( Jordan Hart | ) www.businessinsider.com time to read: +2 min

Steve Jobs had apparently had mixed feelings about Apple entering the TV market before his death. Apple cofounder Steve Jobs reportedly made it clear before he died that Apple wouldn't pursue its own television set, but the company may now be revisiting the idea over a decade later. Jobs reportedly told biographer Walter Isaacson that he'd "finally cracked" how to make TVs simpler to use. In 2014, writer and former Apple beat reporter Yukari Iwatani Kane wrote in her book, "Haunted Empire: Apple After Steve Jobs," that Jobs told top Apple employees in 2010 that the company wouldn't be making a TV set. Apple's services business, which includes Apple TV+ subscriptions, has boomed in recent quarters.

Quick tip: New episodes of Yellowstone aren't currently on Paramount Plus or Peacock in the US. The short, possibly frustrating answer is that new episodes of Yellowstone aren't on Paramount Plus or Peacock in the US (but Paramount Plus does have the new episodes in Canada and the UK). The show airs on the Paramount Network, not CBS or Showtime, so Paramount Plus doesn't carry any episodes of Yellowstone. Additionally, Yellowstone is on Paramount Plus in the UK and Canada, which might be the source of some confusion, in addition to the name similarity between the Paramount Network cable channel and the Paramount Plus streaming service. For the most up-to-date and comprehensive information on viewing new episodes of Yellowstone, check our detailed guide on where to watch Yellowstone.

☆ Netflix, Hulu, and Amazon Prime Video subscribers are hitting 'pause' instead of canceling altogether
▼ + stars: | 2024-11-11 | by ( Katie Notopoulos | ) www.businessinsider.com time to read: +3 min

Streaming video services are seeing more customers hitting "pause," The Wall Street Journal reports. The Journal examined subscription data from analytics firm Antenna to see the pattern of people quitting Netflix, Apple TV+, Disney+, Hulu, Max, Amazon Prime Video, and others. The average rate of U.S. customer cancellations among premium streaming video services reached 5.2% in August, but after factoring in re-subscribers, the rate of defections was lower at 3.5%. Meanwhile, last month, the Federal Trade Commission finalized a "click to cancel" rule that is supposed to make it easier for customers to cancel online subscriptions. In them, he's dancing shirtless to an audio meme to promote his FX show, "English Teacher," which streams on Hulu.
