Roger Cheng 9/12/2017 5:40:09 PMIn the early days of Apple TV, the company positioned its streaming media box as a “hobby.” Still, it was the most popular device of its kind, even without getting a hardware refresh for three years. Apple finally updated Apple TV in late 2015, releasing it with new software -- tvOS -- that lets developer make apps, and a new remote that works with Siri. Apple also boosted the starting price to $149 from $99.
