After many months of waiting, for a couple of weeks, the Amazon Prime Video application is finally compatible with Apple TV. As an example of the need that users had to be able to enjoy the content of Apple's streaming video service, we have seen how app downloads have broken all records that an app for Apple TV had so far. The next appearance on Apple TV of an application to enjoy both recorded and live content is the one corresponding to the Google YouTube TV service.
For a little less than a year, Google has launched in the US market to offer a subscription service that gives access to a large number of television channels, channels that traditionally had always been associated with cable television providers.
Although cable is widely used in the United States, this infrastructure has very high maintenance costs, something that Google's streaming television service does not have, hence it has wanted to get into this sector to obtain a new source of income, but for now, the number of compatible devices is very small and we only find the iPhone, iPad and iPod touch as selected.
Although it seems that the next step would be to launch the application for the Apple TV, it seems that the launch of this application has been delayed again, it is not the first time, and until at least the first quarter of 2018, users who want to contract the YouTube TV service will have to use it through their computer with the corresponding browser or directly from their iPhone, iPod touch and iPad and do AirPlay with Apple TV. This service is priced at $ 35 per month and is currently available in more than 80 cities in the United States.
