It has nothing to do with poor marketing. It's just a streaming device
I guess over 13 million people is minuscule. Some people on here seem to know everything.
I'm not sure where the bitterness is coming from. I didn't trash your choice or claiming that I know everything. I simply say it's a streaming device and a lot of people already have that capacity from Xbox, Playstation, Wii and then many of them having Directv or Dish on top of it. It makes sense that many wouldn't spend 100 bucks for such gift. What is your advice? Packing Apple TV with the gift receipt so they can return it for $100 cash?
Nobody likes a smart ass! I just thought it would make a good gift for those that needed one. Sorry you're not impressed. What was the last great invention you came up with? Not everyone has a gaming device in their household, I don't. Too many negative Nancys on here. Happy holidays everyone.waving-elfgif
