Sure, Apple TV Plus doesn’t quite match the exhaustive breadth of content available on competing streaming services likeNetflix, but it does have very high quality movies and TV shows all its own. But for anyone who doesn’t own an Apple device, such as aniPhone,iPadorApple TV 4Kstreaming box, the service can be quite hard to come by unless you’re lucky enough to have a smart TV with the app pre-installed.

We’re happy to see Apple TV Plus now become just a bit more readily available among smart TV users, and LG smart TVs are some of the best in the business, with incredible image quality and support forDolby Visionthat offers a sharp, vivid picture.
