Apple dzisiaj wydało oświadczenie, w którym informuje o nowych kanałach na Apple TV. Od dzisiaj dostępne będzie HBO GO, WatchESPN, Sky News, Crunchyroll i Qello. Niestety, nie są to kanały oferowane na całym świecie — dostępność będzie zależała od kraju zamieszkania i oferowanych tam usługach, na podobnej zasadzie jak obecne kanały Hulu Plus czy Netflix, które są dostępne między innymi w USA.

W związku z nowymi aplikacjami, Apple wydało również nowy firmware 5.2 dla Apple TV drugiej i trzeciej generacji. Bezpośrednie linki do IPSW znajdziecie tutaj.

Właśnie wykonałem aktualizacje. Mam to samo…w Polsce.

Ja mam SKyNews w kablówce. Jak Apple chce coś zwojować to bez łaski niech pododaje te kanały.
