Latest》The Experience and Resources of Using Apple TV in 2022 (Apple TV User Guide)

Recently, I’ve been exploring and tinkering with Apple TV. The current solution looks something like this: https://dajiayouxuan.com/gouwubiji/5316.html

Overall, the minimum cost to achieve a decent audio-visual experience involves:
10 (Infuse Player) permanent + 25 (IPTV) permanent + 400 for a year of foreign media library access + 180 for two years (AggrPlay, pulling data from multiple sites) + 25 (Bilibili) + (Alibaba Cloud, pricing unknown)
If you want to use a VPN for Netflix as well, you’re looking at about 200 a year for nodes and another 200 a year for accounts—roughly 400 a year in total.
Considering everything (similar to how this aggregates data from these sites), the annual cost comes to around 500 yuan.
If there were an Apple TV app that offered free live TV sources, while charging for unlocked video content and foreign media resources through in-app purchases redeemed via codes on an annual basis, and could bring the user’s viewing cost down to 100–200 yuan, there would surely be a market for it.
The redemption code in-app purchase could be paired with a rebate website where members earn commissions for referrals; additionally, franchise packages with varying fees and commission structures could be offered in collaboration with major group admins.

I’ve currently joined three ATV groups on Telegram with a combined membership of over 3,200 people. If the cost is brought under 200 yuan per year, with just one US Apple ID account required and domestic network access for streaming, and assuming a 50% conversion rate, that could still generate hundreds of thousands of yuan annually.
