Netflix vs Apple TV
March 16, 2008 Gadgets & Toys, Opinion & Attitude 1 CommentHow cool that people, recently, are able to watch movies at home without going out to a movie rental store!! I’m just about to love it. I don’t want to go find a movie in a store because I just don’t like doing it. But who cares? Now, I’m just home and able to watch movie instantly via
or
.
Let’s talk about Netflix first because it exists before Apple TV. My friend’s uncle told me about this service because we all loved watching movies. I registered about almost one year later after I moved to a new apartment and found out that it was really fantastic. I’ve paid a little money for 4-5 movies a month. Moreover, I’m able to see some movie instantly without paying any extra. The price is absolutely reasonable. Furthermore, the service is great. The mail movie was lost once and when I let them know, they sent another one immediately. I was so impressed.
About Apple TV, I have to say that I never use or even see how it works in person, but I bet I can imagine after watching their guided tour: http://www.apple.com/appletv/guidedtour/ . I think it’s pretty cool but it’s kind of expensive compared to Netflix. I don’t think it’s worth if I have to pay $229 for an Apple TV (cute) box and $2.99 per a movie or $3.99 for HD.
Eventually, I couldn’t even tell whether Apple TV is better than Netflix or not since I will not buy it at all. And surely, I’m really appreciated what I have right now.
