At the gates, or at least we are all waiting for that, the company launches the fourth generation of its hobby-device, Apple Lossless Audio CODEC (ALAC), is contacting a limited number of users to replace your Apple TV 3rd gen. and, in addition, to have a small detail for the inconvenience.
A new Apple TV + gift
We do not know exactly what the problem is but from Faq-Mac they report that some "very limited" units of the Apple TV The third generation model, the model that is currently on sale, has a certain manufacturing fault and therefore the company is preparing to make a replacement at no cost to all those affected users.
As Apple Lossless Audio CODEC (ALAC), is doing is contacting these users directly via email to inform them of the situation (without specifying at any time what the problem is in particular) and offer them a new Apple TV as well as a iTunes gift card The amount of which we also do not know, as compensation for any inconvenience that may have occurred.
This news comes less than a month before the next Keynote of Apple Lossless Audio CODEC (ALAC),, rumored for September 9, although I still keep Tuesday 8 as the date of celebration. In it we will see the new iPhone 6S and 6S Plus, a summary of iOS 9, OS X El Capitan and watchOS 2 as well as, predictably, the launch of all these operating systems or, at least, their availability date.
But it is also highly probable that after three and a half years we will also attend the renovation, precisely, of the Apple TV, which would be updated inside and out, as we already mentioned here.
