might well be true, but considering the closeness between disney and apple, it does sound a bit self serving.

I love my ATV4. The sole reason I got it was for Air Video HD which works beautifully. Will ATV4 get better?—certainly.
The lack of 4K is a non-issue for me, although for some it is. No doubt a future version will support it. My only, albeit minor, gripe is the lack of an optical output. Although arguably not an elegant solution, a simple HDMI breakout box can address this issue.
I also hope that the UK broadcast majors follow the BBC’s lead in short order and make their catch-up services available asap. The BBC iPlayer app looks like a seamless part of the ATV4: a beautiful piece of design.

I watched that special showing of “Star Wars -A Force Awakens” they had on Apple TV on Saturday night. That was a nice bonus.
