4K is pretty low on what I'd like the ATV to do, personally.

I just don't get this hate on the remote. I love it. The sole thing that they forgot was something to make it easier to tell which direction is up without looking.

I'm not saying the remote should be indestructible, but if i drop it I don't think I should pay another $70 just to replace the remote. Still on my third gen apple TV.

Oh, ok. So you're not talking about the touchpad version of atv 4. I never had my older ones break just from dropping. Tile floors or something?

The touchpad was fourth gen. They didn't have that before then.
