[QUOTE="Ruin Explorer, post: 9406432, member: 18"] I like Apple TV+ but I find this a very legit concern. Personally, my experience of Apple TV+ (lol hate writing that out, feels very corporate, but I can't think how to shorten it and not cause confusion) pretty positive, with the sole annoyance being that when I use a new device, I have to go to a site on my mobile to confirm the device (you can also get sent a code). But I hate iTunes, in part because I was in IT in the '00s and it was the #1 single cause of network and PC problems, as every entitled idiot lawyer tried to install it or begged us to install it for them on their work PCs, and in a larger part because it's absolute TRASHFIRE of an app on everything I've ever used it on (including Apple computers). It seems like with so much money and time having gone into it, it should basically just be solid and boring and work well, but nope! And so many people have problems with Apple stuff, especially if you're not full Apple ecosystem (but sometimes if you are!). Like a friend was trying to register an Apple ID to get Apple TV+ to work, and it just kept failing inexplicably, and giving him terrible error messages. He spent an hour chatting or on the phone with Apple tech support and they were 100% useless with non-solutions he'd already tried. The internet was also fairly useless. It failed on both PC and phone too. But trawling through fixes, I saw one for a different issue, which was so dumb it just might work - specifically that if you're using a mobile to go to Apple's ID confirmation link and that mobile is on both WiFi and Network, turn off the WiFi and try again. And that was it. Just a completely stupid problem that is completely Apple-specific and was a huge pain to work out. [/QUOTE]
