#I purchased jackbox tv games for ipad can i access them mac tv
My friends’ vacation rental, where my family and I stayed last weekend (we got to sit by ourselves in a different house, and eat different takeout!), didn’t have an Apple TV or any other streaming box. Then in advance of the arrival of Apple’s TV streaming service, Apple made deals with the makers of TV sets and streaming boxes to add support for AirPlay, an Apple TV app, or both. First, the arrival of the Movies Anywhere service has allowed most iTunes film (not television) purchases to migrate to other devices. And most importantly, it was the only box that supported movies and TV shows rented or purchased from Apple.īut over the past couple of years, most of those distinctions have faded away. It supported AirPlay and screen mirroring, for beaming video right from Apple devices to the big screen. From exclusive to ubiquitousįor a long time, the killer feature of the Apple TV was that it did things that no other streaming device could do. It either needs to evolve into something else, or die. I don’t know where the Apple TV hardware is going, but it can’t stand still. And while I’ve complained about how little Apple seems to be focused on updating and improving the device, I’d never seriously considered that the Apple TV box as we’ve come to know it might not be long for this world.īut after listening to a discussion of the issue on the February 8 episode of John Gruber and Ben Thompson’s podcast Dithering and spending a weekend away at a friend’s vacation rental house, I think I’ve changed my mind.
