Apple discontinues third-generation Apple TV, removes it from online store

Chance Miller, writing for 9to5mac:

The gradual death of the third-gen Apple TV is continuing this evening, as Apple has officially discontinued the device. In an email sent out today to employees and education partners, obtained by 9to5Mac, Apple confirmed that it is discontinuing the device, shifting its focus entirely to the fourth-gen, tvOS-powered model and possibly a new model.

I have a third-gen Apple TV and it still works well. Perfect solution to add Netflix, Hulu, etc. to a lower-use TV. If I could get another one at a heavily discounted price, I’d snap it up in a heartbeat.

  1. Makes sense given the app store is only available on tvOS. It’s a bit confusing having the two generations existing with such fundamental differences.

  2. I use my ATV3 to drive an external 2nd monitor via Airplay. It was a nice run, but the new ATV4 has apps that I want (Sling, Music) that simply aren’t ever coming to the 3. I’m tempted to get another 3 to drive a TV in the bedroom but I suppose I can always get one used.

  3. Google is paying 97$ per hour! Work for few hours and have longer with friends & family! !mj369d:
