Apple was wise to offer it for free to Apple hardware buyers while they build up the library. We’re only 5 months in and the library is already growing large with dozens of shows in the works and news of deals in sports. AppleTV+ will easily justify its price. Heck, I’d pay $4.99/month for the second season of For All Mankind alone.
I've enjoyed a few of the shows that the service offers, but it's going to be in trouble once the free one year subscriptions run out. It's hard to justify renewing the service(with real money) and only a small handful of shows that are available.
