ITunes download issues, should I invest in Apple TV?

1 Answer

Answer :

answer:Honestly, if you’re already having issues with iTunes I wouldn’t really recommend it. Apple’s support is pretty bad, and to me, as a consumer, it doesn’t make a whole lot of sense to buy another one of their products when you’re having issues with another. Have you ever thought about Netflix? If you were to switch from iTunes to Netflix (much cheaper), you could get something like a Playstation 3 or Xbox 360 (useful for much more than games) and try hooking those up to your TV instead. The Apple TV just seems far too expensive for such a niche product.
