I think it's fair to say anyone in the UK using Apple TV would expect the main catch up services to be available on apple TV by now. All we have is iPlayer - no 4OD, no My5 and no ITV Player. I thought this would be ok in the medium term since we have airplay, but apparently not. 4OD is junk when airplayed, and ITV/My5 don't have airplay.
So I'm forced now to buy a Roku to get access to these apps. I had hoped cord cutting would be a breeze with Apple TV since most apps are developed for iOS the same should happen for tvOS. With no news of these missing _essential_ apps I can't see any other way of getting access without buying another device.
Just miffed since it's been a hard sell moving away from Sky since my wife likes it, but barley uses it. I had confidence by the time I was out of contract with Sky all the UK catchup services would be available or some sign of them coming.
