Apple TV User's Guide - Shelby Johnson
Introduction
Deciding on a live streaming option for your entertainment needs may not be as difficult as you think. With just a few viable options on the market, access and reliability play huge parts in which electronic device you choose. Apple TV delivers both in an affordable way, and compact design.
What does Apple TV Do?
The Apple TV media device expands your viewing options and enhances the quality of programming you can receive in your own home. Apple TV, in all of its tiny glory, delivers blockbuster movies, access to your favorite television series, sports programming, music and much, much more by allowing you to stream videos, images and data directly from your iOS device to your television set.
Apple TV vs. Chromecast vs. Roku
Apple TV has two main competitors in the live streaming industry – the Google Chromecast and the Roku streaming media player. Although all three devices allow you to stream movies, television programming and music, Apple hedges both devices by simply having one thing to offer: Better technology. The Roku comes in a number of tiered options, allowing you to choose from a simple version with standard broadcasting capabilities, to one with HD formatting and a microSD card. Apple TV costs the same as the high end Roku version, and provides similar amenities with 1080p HD broadcasting, and the only available version comes remote-ready, with a sleek design. Not all Roku devices include a remote when purchased.
The Chromecast is a heck of a lot cheaper, at a third of the price of Apple TV, but it also has approximately one third of the capabilities, making it an exceptional tool for smaller needs – like streaming from your laptop or tablet directly to the television. It is also a Google product, which means you will need to acquire a Google account if you do not already have one in order to use it.
You can use a Roku, Chromecast and/or Apple TV to save money on monthly cable or satellite TV bills. My guidebook for How to Get Rid of Cable TV & Save Money provides additional tips on resources on ditching a monthly cable or satellite television service and using less expensive alternatives to watch TV.
What's in the Box?
As with most things Apple, the design and implementation process for Apple TV is simple. Inside the box you will find:
• Apple TV

• Documentation
In order to effectively use the device, there are a few system requirements that must be adhered to in order to stream the content you like best.
What Else Do You Need?
There is a little more to it than just unloading the contents of the box and getting started. You will need the following components to enjoy the benefits of owning an Apple TV, and the good news is each is readily available in this high tech world.
• HDMI Cable (Sold Separately from Apple TV, may be included in certain
