So i have a smart tv that lets me stream and airplay anything i want. Is there any benefit to getting an Apple TV besides the HomeKit stuff? Like do you better quality on the context? i have a mini led ( Neo Qled) Samsung tv, a 2021 mode

I like the controls better. The ten second rewind and ffw are easier to use than the TV’s apps. In fact I haven’t figured it out yet on the TV apps. I used to love the integrated Up Next, but Netflix doesn’t participate and other services like MAX stopped working.

As an early adopter of TiVo I really liked their interface and features. I haven’t had it for many years, but just ordered their Stream 4k device. It promises to give that integration. I’m tired of keeping a list of shows and what service they are on.
