Google’s YouTube unit this week informed YouTube TV customers of a change in policy that will see a discontinuation of subscriptions purchased through Apple’s in-app payments mechanism, forcing users to subscribe elsewhere or cancel the service.

According to a letter sent to YouTube TV customers, the company will stop accepting payments for subscriptions through Apple’s in-app system on March 13.

As noted by MacRumors, current members of the service can continue to watch YouTube TV content on Apple devices, meaning the service itself is not being pulled from the App Store.

“You’ll be billed for one final month of service and then your in-app purchase subscription will be canceled automatically on your billing date after March, 13, 2020,” the letter reads.

YouTube failed to clarify the change in policy, but Apple’s traditional 30% cut of all in-app payments likely played a role in the decision. In a bid to encourage adoption of subscription payment models, Apple lowers its take of App Store fees to 15% for users who hold a monthly subscription for over a year.

To compensate, YouTube TV customers who pay in-app on Apple devices are charged $54.99 a month, higher than the typical $49.99 fee applied to all other customers. YouTube put a halt to new subscriptions made via in-app purchases on iPhone and iPad months ago, but has until now allowed existing users to continue to use Apple’s mechanism to process monthly payments.

The change in YouTube TV’s terms comes amid rumors that the company is mulling an expansion of its service that allows users to sign up and subscribe to premium third-party streaming services. Apple currently offers a similar product in Apple TV Channels.

Apple TV is such a great platform, and it’s real shame that you can’t download Kodi from the tvOS App Store. However, this doesn’t mean that you can’t use this app – you just need a trustful guide that will teach you how to install Kodi on Apple TV, without jailbreaking the device.

To make this process as smooth as possible, we’ll first list the official requirements. And we’ll also make a note of which software tools you’ll need for this process. Later on, we are going to discuss three methods of installing Kodi on Apple TV, which means you have plenty of options in front of you.

Here are the reasons that you should consider looking at it without SKIPPING.

1. Using ILLEGAL Kodi Addons are Dangerous without a VPN: Most of the Kodi users are installing the ILLEGAL Kodi addons on their system to access all the latest movies, TV shows, sports, music, and much more for FREE, than a legal Kodi addon where it has the least content in it. But do you know what? The video content on illegal addons are a scraped and copyrighted material. If you are accessing them on Kodi, then your activities will be monitored by your ISP by tracking your IP and gives all the information to the government or companies if they request for it. This will land you in trouble. To stay away from this, you will have to connect to a VPN where it hides your identity by rotating your IP address while streaming Kodi content. This is how you will be safe from the prying eyes.
2. Bypass Geo-Restriction: As you probably know, some official addons like BBC iPlayer, NBC Sports, Hulu, IceFilms have geo-location restrictions. This also applies to other addons like Acestream which fetches the data from torrents. To unblock these restrictions, you will have to DEFINITELY use a VPN no matter what.

The above are the 2 reasons that forcing us to recommend a VPN to the Kodi users for safer streaming. In fact, after testing several VPNs for Kodi, we finally came up with a one non-stop solution and that is ExpressVPN, the top rated Kodi VPN so far.

Limited Time Offer: For our TechNadu readers, there is a 49% OFF on ExpressVPN which includes 3 FREE Months in it.

The Official Requirements

• Apple TV (4th or 5th generation – Apple TV 4K);
• tvOS version 11 or 12;
• The latest version of Kodi for iOS – DEB File (ARM64);
• Cydia Impactor – for the method that includes this tool;
• Xcode and iOS App Signer – for the method that includes Xcode.

We’ve prepared 2 installation methods for Apple TVs that come with a USB port (for connecting to your computer). And there’s one installation method that applies to the Apple TV 4K (that doesn’t have a USB port).

• Method 1: Install Kodi on Apple TV via Cydia Impactor
• Method 2: Install Kodi on Apple TV via Xcode
• Method 3: Install Kodi on Apple TV 4K…

Apple has unveiled Apple TV+, a streaming service full of original shows, movies, and documentaries. This will be Netflix without the filler, with Apple going all-in on original content you’ll only be able to watch through Apple TV+.

Streaming Services Switch to Original Content

When streaming services first took off, they were filled with old shows people wanted to watch again. However, now, with Netflix and Amazon leading the way, streaming services are packed with original shows you can’t see anywhere else.

The idea is to make a subscription to Netflix, Amazon Prime, or Hulu an essential rather than a luxury. And Netflix in particular has spent a small fortune on original content Netflix Raises Prices to Fund More Original Content If you’re currently subscribed to Netflix then you should prepare yourself to start paying more for the privilege. Because Netflix is raising the price of two of its three plans in several countries. Read More in the hopes of retaining existing customers and enticing new subscribers.

And now Apple is joining the party.

Apple TV+ Bags a Host of Celebrities

Apple is pitching Apple TV+ as “the new home for the world’s most creative storytellers”. Once launched, the service will feature a host of “exclusive original shows, movies and documentaries”. And the line-up of actors and directors involved is impressive.

Oprah Winfrey, Steven Spielberg, Jennifer Aniston, Reese Witherspoon, J.J. Abrams, Jason Momoa, and M. Night Shyamalan, are among the big names who have signed up to star in, direct, or produce original content for Apple TV+.

Details on the content is thin on the ground at this stage, but Spielberg will be rebooting Amazing Stories and Aniston and Witherspoon will be starring in a drama called The Morning Show. Apple is rumored to be spending billions on this original content.

Apple TV+ is due to launch in the fall. It will be available in 100+ countries, be completely ad-free, and offer downloads for offline viewing. You’ll be able to access Apple TV+ through the new Apple TV app on iOS, macOS, smart TVs, and streaming devices.

Apple TV Channels Steals Amazon’s Idea

The one thing Apple hasn’t disclosed is the price of Apple TV+. It could be that the company is still working out how much it needs to charge to claw back the amount of money it’s investing. After all, Netflix keeps raising prices to pay for original content.

Apple also revealed a new version of the Apple TV app, plus Apple TV channels. The latter means you’ll be able to subscribe to premium services such as HBO and Showtime all within the app. In the same way you can using Amazon Prime Video Channels 8 Amazon Prime TV Channels Actually Worth Watching Amazon recently added about 30 TV channels that you can subscribe to for an additional monthly fee, but are they worth subscribing to? Here are eight that could be worth your time and money. Read More .
