The hardware sales I was talking about is their streaming box which is in no way dominant but is really nice. Also we have pretty much reached peak iPhone or close to it. These subscription services help keep people in the ecosystem as it raises switching costs a bit.

The article is implying that TV+ is losing money. I don’t know that it is but my point is that for Apple it is likely still worth keeping and growing the service even if they are losing money on it at the moment.

Apple TV doesn’t matter, I’m sure iPad watching dwarfs ATV many hundreds if not thousands of times over.

AppleTV exists to make existing mega fans happy the ecosystem extends to their TV not to sell things.
