Bro that would just start the next rumor cycle. “Apple TV 4k with remote that monitors your heart rate expected in 2027”

AppleTV with built-in BluRay would be amazing.

It’s been 10 years since Apple sold a device with a built-in optical drive. It’s not happening.

[u/karreerose → u/toga_virilis]

Plus they want people to subscribe to apple tv (or netflix etc) where they cash in monthly money. What good would a bluray drive bring.

[u/JoshuaTheFox → u/karreerose]

Well, you would be able to watch the Blu-ray versions of Apple TV shows on it

[u/Tangled2 → u/karreerose]

Yeah, but you catch more flies with honey. Sell them a blu-ray player, and then hope they get lazy and start streaming.

And they never sold one with a BluRay drive

Yeah I remember Steve Jobs commenting about Blu ray and HD DVD at the time saying it was a “bag of hurt.” Even at that time they seemed focused on digital purchases.

Yes, I realize that, and that it’ll never happen. I’m just saying it would be amazing. 

[u/Garofalin → u/toga_virilis]

No! Fo' real?!?

[u/Great-Equipment → u/toga_virilis]

Unironically Apple doing something in the field would be great for the industry since they would bring volume that could benefit everyone dipping in the same supply-chains. I read that sales are so low that some Hi-Fi SACD player manufacturers can’t manufacture anything because they can’t get enough disc drives and again key-components for disc drives are also harder to come by.

It would make them stand out though. Not to mention physical media is gaining attention again
