I’m sure they will over time. In the past year they’ve added 4 ESPN channels, HBO GO, Disney, Disney DX, the iTunes Radio, WSJ Live, Smithsonian Channel and Vevo just off the top of my head... It’s an area that Apple is continuing to expand...

Re: ios7 & Apple TV

along with the new airplay rumors will you be able to buy music via ATV (read it some where)? also, something about a call center?

You can buy music through the iTunes radio channel... each song has a link to buy the song...

It would be grate if they expanded some of the new channels into other countries. Would love to have the Disney channel in the UK

Are you able to subscribe to the Disney channel via cable/satellite in the UK? I only ask because in order to view them on the AppleTV, you have to validate your subscription via cable/satellite. In other words, you have to already pay to watch it somewhere (else) before you can watch it on the AppleTV. Same with the ESPN channels, HBO GO, etc.

what will the new ios 7 have for ATV 3?

A conference room mode - allowing someone with an iOS device to use your AppleTV without tying to your AppleID... a low-power bluetooth set-up via your iPhone... & iTunes Radio.

can I be at work using 3g towers or does it have does it have to be on wifi for the conference room.

AirPlay is a wifi thing.

 

[Chris Cook5]

is it limited to a certain range or can it be if you & the other person's ATV is 20 miles away

I'm baffled as to why you'd even think that would be possible... Gotta be in the same room as the AppleTV... at least within wifi range... you can't play something from your phone at work to your TV at home...

 

[Chris Cook5]

I thought it might be like draw something app that lets you draw something know matter where you are for the other person. I just thought you can play or show something from you ATV to your family/friends ATV as long as your both on wifi

is there a simple way to explain it in words

I'm at work but is the update for ATV out

 

[kch50428]

Don't know... I was running the beta - and didn't get any indication of an update available - am trying a manual restore of the AppleTV via iTunes - and having the download time out, etc... and having to restart the download...

Nothing yet...

Is Apple TV expecting an update to today?

Expecting it sometime soon... don’t know if it will be today... it’s been in beta along with iOS 7... it could drop at any time...or not today at all.

Ok thanks. Don't get me wrong I'm still fighting to update my mini lol reverts to using the PC now.

This never did work for me... and in the process - it looks like I still have the beta on AppleTV - however - iTunes Radio is gone... I wonder if it's just me - or if Apple yanked radio from AppleTV for the time being...

It’s still there on the beta for me... are you sure it’s not hidden via the Parental Controls?
