More commercials oh boy! Good question I have Directv and don't see the point to use any channel on my Apple TV that is on my Sat programing. I do watch them on my iPad though. Most Network apps suck though.
Sigh...... How about this:
You can use the Apple TV on a secondary TV in your house and get content without paying monthly for an extra set top box from direct tv.
I've wondered why over the air broadcast stations haven't offered this before. You can already get them for free so a cable subscription shouldn't be an impediment. They can use the exact same ad supported model that they already use over the air.
whaaa whaaaaaa too many icons whaaaa whaaaaaaaa more useless channels whaaaaa whaaaaa my cable system won't let me watch whaaaaaaaa whaaaaa why isn't there an app store whaaaaaaaaaa cable sucks whaaaaaaaaa...... whhhhhiiiiiiiiine
