New Apple TV pictures

Apple unveiled its latest Apple TV today at a press event in San Francisco. The rumored price of $99 was confirmed, as well as the lack of 1080p playback. It will be 720p capable like the last Apple TV, but also adds some notable features including Netflix support and a new seven-button aluminum remote. Apple has also stripped some features out of the device by removing hard drive storage, component and RCA outputs and replacing the standard USB port with a Micro-USB. Some predicted that it would be getting app support, but sadly that is not the case. However, the new Apple TV is less than half the price of the original, which still lists for over $200, so the reduction of features is negated by such a low launch price.

"Nothing is certain except death and taxes," Benjamin Franklin apparently said in 1789. If he were alive today, he may very well have added, "... and streaming subscription price increases." Yes, that's my way of saying that -- despite reports to the contrary -- YouTube TV is jacking the price of its base subscription by $10 per month starting January 13, 2025, according to the following email sent to customers on December 12:
YouTube TV has always worked hard to offer you the content you love, delivered the way you want, with features that make it easy to enjoy the best of live TV.

‌To keep up with the rising cost of content and the investments we make in the quality of our service, we’re updating our monthly price from $72.99/month to $82.99/month starting January 13, 2025.

Apple Music has just doubled the number of its live hosted radio stations from three to six, with the addition of Apple Música Uno, Apple Music Club, and Apple Music Chill. The new stations are available now, from anywhere in the world. They join the existing radio lineup that includes the flagship Apple Music 1, Apple Music Country, and Apple Music Hits. Despite that they live under the Apple Music brand, you don't need an Apple Music subscription to access these stations -- they're available for free in the Apple Music app on both mobile and desktop platforms or on the web.

Apple Música Uno, as the name suggests, is a dedicated station for global Latin music, hosted at launch by Becky G. She'll be joined by fellow Latin stars Rauw Alejandro and Grupo Frontera, who will each host their own shows.
