AppleTV App just doesn’t workFirst of all I love the content. I just watch MS Now via my TV provider not the app. Every other day the app doesn’t work, even though I have it connected to my on my Apple TV internet TV provider. Sometimes it works, most of the time it didn’t. So I deleted the app off all of my devices.

Swing and a missI used to listen to some of your programs at different times of the day (free). Now you want me to pay, not going to happen. Programming is not that great. Same stories rehashed from one program to the next.

Don’t like the subscription model. Bring back the old format.Don’t like the subscription model. Bring back the old format.
