I got the free year and then got hooked on Ted Lasso and For All Mankind, both of which would fit into the upper tier of Netflix’s programming. Some of their nature shows are also great. TV plus, News, Fitness, and Arcade ended up being an extra $7 CAD when part of the Apple One bundle on top of what I was already paying for iCloud storage and Apple Music on the family plans.

The bundle strategy is an old one, and it works especially well in family plans where one person might be a big user of one service and a minor user of another. It’s also a good fit given the regular practice of adults passing their old phones on to kids or vice versa.

Anyway, Apple TV is actually on chromecast now.

That would be a new device to buy, since I'm using the original Chromecast. But I see your point about the upside of this bundling strategy, it just wasn't enough to win me over.
