Well, I suppose when you do get Disney+, you could try sending it from your
phone to your Apple TV? Or can you do that with a device of that generation? It
might be watchable on a Mac as well. I just don’t know. Good luck.

I’ve got Prime, and I’m fine with it on Apple TV, fine with Netflix on Apple
TV, really if they would update the older locked down Apple TV units with
Disney+ I’d be fine, that’s the only reson I’m looking at a new unit. So
really I’m only looking for a Disney+ player, so if I can get one for $150
less than a new Apple TV I’m thinking hard about my Apple loyalty.

Hi and,
What other services interest you? Are you a prime member? Netflix? I
personally am not thrilled with Netflix on the fire stick, but I won’t go
into why if that doesn’t interest you.

Yup, it all depends on the money willingness. In canada right now the
Apple TV is $150 more then the similar Fire Stick. Grrr, I’ve been an Apple
loyalist all along.
If we end up getting Disney+ we’ll probably try Airplay from a phone first.
The support materials I’m findingthat mention a lack of audio description
for Roku dont’ mention Fire, so maybe.
Thanks, before things devolve into a discussion about things that aren’t
Apple, I’ll stop rambling.

Hi Ian,
In my opinion, an Apple TV is not worth the premium price. I have one. But
I got it sometime ago, the generation after the one you have. If you get a
fire stick, you can get the Apple TV app for your fire stick. You can get
Disney plus, but I don’t know if description works on the stick. If that’s
important to you, you might want to research whether or not people can yet
audio described stuff on the fire stick. I think I heard that you can’t.
there are also rumors about new Apple TV coming out. In that case, they
might drop the price on remaining stock of older models, so you could get
the Apple TV if you want it for less. I guess it depends on how willing
you are to learn a new system and a new screen reader. And how much money
you have to spare. Smile.

Ok, hoping this still counts as worthy of the Voiceover list, I’m
looking at upgrading from my old Apple TV because it’s apps are
restricted to the ones loaded for you, and Disney+ isn’t going to be
added. So, is a new Apple TV worth the hefty price compared to an Amazon
Fire TV unit?We’ll still have our old Apple TV for Apple content.
Cheers,
Ian
