Everybody wins, except for Technicolor or Arris that makes these boxes. And here's the big surprise.my monthly Comcast bill has a cheaper TV component than Internet.and its cheaper than Youtube or Hulu once you upgrade them for nickel and dimming you on 4K and/or DVR features.Īnd now I'll just have Apple streaming boxes so I can return the two Comcast boxes which Comcast is already discounting their fees for in order to keep my business. One issue I know the had to be worked out is DVR where Xfinity customers are still storing shows locally and everyone else does this in the cloud now. Why I would still need a Comcast box at all is nuts and their recommendation of getting a Roku box wasn't an option for me in a hour full of Apple tech. I looked at this in the last couple of weeks and complained bitterly to my local Comcast store in that I wanted to consolidate my streaming boxes to just one thing.an Apple TV 4K. The irony is that Comcast legacy TV has a winning package compared to the cord cutting options, especially for things like sports and regional sports networks. And Comcast had never participated in the single sign-on feature of iOS/tvOS which has always been a major pain in the rear with apps constantly asking for reauthorization, especially if you hadn't used them in a while. Maybe it was lack of customer data from tvOS's ability to block this just like iOS does.
Maybe it was revenue sharing on the premium channel subscriptions. I'm not sure just what the problem was with making a deal with Apple. But limiting that strategy to only Roku boxes made even less sense.
At some point Comcast must have realized that losing people who wanted a TV package to YoutubeTv (Google) or Hulu (Disney) wasn't a good long term strategy.
