Oh my god that is just an insane design choice


[flagged]


You do not have to look at any market data to conclude that is unacceptably user hostile - I don't mean "acceptable" as in financially, I mean that it's unconscionable.


I mean... I am. It's hostile to the user, period. It doesn't matter if 99% of AppleTv owners have another device, it's still user hostile.

I suppose it might not be "insane", just malicious, if the intent is to force some amount of the N% of people with just an AppleTv to buy another apple product. Then it wouldn't be insane or stupid, but it would be scummy as hell.


Insane and moronic can mean two very different things that can be incompatible with one another.
