Apple TV channel listings
Researching on the web web we found it tough to get a complete list of channels that are available on the Apple TV. It’s here, but it’s pretty well hidden on the website. If you are considering purchasing an AppleTv for Christmas or another occasion, a channel list seems to be an obvious feature that you’d like to be able to access. We’ve summarised the channels in bullet point below.

One of main benefits of having an Apple TV is the mirroring your MacBook, iPad or iPhone with the TV is really straight forward. Just make sure you are on the same WiFi connection and select mirroring from the taskbar. This allows you to easily display your photos, show off an app or play music on your TV. Apple is known for making things as simple as possible for users, mirroring your display sounds complicated, but it’s really easy to do.
With the latest Apple TV you can also download apps, to play games on your TV. The latest ones (released in October 2015) also have storage, either 32GB or 64GB.
