“Every June during its Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC), Apple previews some of the biggest software changes coming to the iPhone, the iPad, and the Mac. This year, you can expect a lot more,” Jacob Kastrenakes reports for The Verge. “Though there are changes in store for iOS and OS X, the biggest stories of WWDC 2015 could be the introduction of a new streaming music service based on Beats and the introduction of a new kind of app: one that’s meant for the TV.”
“We’ve broken down everything that you should be looking out for, big and small,” Kastrenakes reports. “The event begins on Monday, June 8th at 10AM PT / 1PM ET from the Moscone Center in San Francisco.”

how about:
– Leap Motion control integrated onto Apple TV
– Gaming on Apple TV
– Siri on Apple TV
– more free services not paid
– A8 and M8 chipset on Apple TV
– App store on Apple TV
– usb ports for external recorded media playback
– usb port for FaceTime
Lets face, it Apple TV is great but its time to take it out of the hobby stage and crush the Android area of offerings… most smart tv out there use Android or WebOS
If there is no new major AppleTV announcement – whether hardware or software – it will be a disappointment. Other stuff is nice, but it’s way past due to bring the AppleTV to the next level.
– OS X 10.11
– iOS 9
– Apple TV SDK
– WATCH SDK
– Mac Pro Update Pre-Announced (TB3/Skylake)
– ApplePay web payment system.
– Updated Maps; High resolution 3D Street view, Public Transit
– iCloud Updates:
– – Base storage increase
– – CloudKit goes cross platform (Windows / Android)
– – App updates, possibly new announcements.
Correct places pronunciation and more places on Maps. Haven’t fix that since iOS 6.
