Sweet. I just tested a couple of Epix movies -- working great. Now, if only the Apple TV+ app wasn't so confusing. It reminds me of Apple Music app when it first came out...confusing. I'm guessing we will be getting a new TV+ app this summer/fall.

On the topic of Apple TV Channels, HBO Channels has 20 free movies (e.g., Detective Pikachu, The LEGO Movie 2) and 18 free TV series (e.g., Six Feet Under, Silicon Valley, The Sopranos, Veep, The Wire). And it does not require a subscription at all. All available under "free" sections.

I hope you are right about the Apple TV+ app. I like the service and I like a lot of the content but I don't like the way the app mixes Apple's original content with everybody else's content making it hard to find what you are looking for.
