Apple TV Plus, the iPhone maker’s entry into the TV and movies subscription space, finally has a release date and a price point. And it’s pretty compelling.
Launching on November 1, Apple has priced Apple TV Plus at just $7.99 a month.
And, to sweeten the deal further, anyone who buys a new iPhone (such as the iPhone 11), iPad, Mac or Apple TV, you’ll get access to the service for free, for a year.
That’s incredibly competitive compared to the competition of Netflix and Disney+, and that’s including access for your whole family – up to six people.
It’s an aggressive price point then. But it’s worth noting that, for starters, the library of content available to viewers will be less deep than what Netflix will offer, and secondly that Apple will be drip-feeding its original content onto the streaming service every month, rather than setting it all free at that November launch date.
Still, that’s the price of a fancy coffee every month. That’s hard to argue against.
