search with their voice for TV shows and movies across
multiple content providers simultaneously.
The all-new Apple TV is built from the ground up with a new
generation of high-performance hardware and introduces an
intuitive and fun user interface using the Siri Remote.

The new Siri Remote dramatically simplifies while people
select, scroll and navigate through their favourite content
while bringing unique interactivity to the new Apple TV by
using a glass touch surface.
Apple TV runs the all-new TV OS operating system, based on
Apple’s IOS, enabling millions of IOS developers to create
innovative new apps and games specifically for Apple TV and
deliver them directly to users through the new Apple TV app
store.
With Siri, people can use their voice to search TV shows and
movies by title, genre, cast, crew, rating or popularity.

Advertisement: The recent launch of the iRadio does lay the
foundation for a solid Apple ad exchange. Advertisers will be
able to use Apple’s user data and purchase patterns to lay out
ads on iPhones, iPads, and MacBooks.
Expand services further: Apple can add fewer version of
subscription or ad-supported video streaming content which
will lead to more revenues.
Newer and existing products: Apple can generate more
revenue from emerging markets for iPhone and iPad products.
