These are the 7 unanswered questions about the new Apple TV + service

The presentation of the Apple news that took place this Tuesday at the Steve Jobs Theater in Cupertino (California, USA) has become one of the main events of this week. Apart from the iPhone 11 line, Apple Watch Series 5 and a new iPad, the Apple company also announced the launch of its new Apple Arcade and Apple TV + subscription services.

The Apple TV + television streaming service It will start operating on November 1 at a price of $ 4.99 per month. In addition, as a feature, all new iPhones, iPads, Macs and Apple TV devices will come with one year free Apple TV +.

However, this it might not be enough to compete against giants like Netflix, Hulu, HBO or Amazon Prime Video, and according to the CNET portal, Apple has not yet explained everything that is necessary to know about the new service, so its experts prepared seven questions to the American company .

Possibility of licensed movies and 'bundles'

The first question refers to the existence of a library of licensed programs and movies. During the presentation, Tim Cook's company announced that the new service will feature original Apple content, but said nothing about third-party content. At the time of its launch, on Apple TV + nine original titles will be available, With five other productions whose release is expected in the following months.

CNET specialists emphasize that several competitors of Apple TV + have, in addition to the original content, a library of licensed programs and movies, something that can be "really important", since it often represents most of the audience of a platform.

Also, experts recalled that product packages, or 'bundles', are becoming increasingly common, so they suggested that a discounted package for two or more Apple services, Such as Music, Arcade or even iCloud storage, would help the company "relieve some of the pressure on its newest services, which need time to build their catalogs and reputation."

The third question is related to Apple's announcement that its application Apple TV will arrive "in the future" to other platforms like Amazon Fire TV, LG, Roku, Sony or Vizio. According to CNET, the apple company should specify when this will happen and how its programs will be broadcast on non-Apple devices.

Simultaneous transmissions and user interface

Another question from experts is whether Apple will limit simultaneous transmissions. It is known that with $ 4.99 monthly Apple TV + will allow access to the service to a maximum of six users, but it is not clear on how many devices you can enjoy the contents simultaneously.

"Simultaneous transmission limits may be a function of pricing in some cases, but they are also a way in which services avoid that password sharing is done in an unbridled manner, "explain the specialists.

Also, experts wonder how Apple TV + will be presented in the Apple TV user interface, since before the application grouped television programs and movies at the top of the 'Up Next' section, no matter what service the content came from .

Finally, the remaining two questions concern the use of passwords and if Apple plans to take action against such practice, as well as the existence or not of a Parental control within the service
