Television

You implied that, as an Android user, you couldn't watch Apple TV without an Apple device. If you really want you, there are several ways without buying Apple hardware. I think the PlayStation has an app.

I'm generally in favor of native apps, but in the case of streaming TV, I'd rather use a browser - it's one less application to install that provides questionable value over a web page, and gives me far more options for viewing content in a variety of situations. At one point we had Prime, Netflix, and Apple all at the same time, and I used a browser to watch all of them; there was almost no difference.

I don't know the answer to the resolution question; we've canceled all of our streaming accounts.

My perspective may be different. Aside from my Android phone, I don't use anything other than Linux. Having access to services through a browser, rather than having to install apps that companies rarely provide for Linux, is a vastly superior accessibility solution.
