Depends on what you value ... for me I like that it is all in one box and not handing all my watching data over to anyone (I keep the TV disconnected). And the apps tend to be snappy as the box is so overpowered as a simple YouTube or Netflix device.
The quality of 4K seems to me to be much higher on Netflix and Prime Video on the Apply TV than the in-built apps on my LG TV. I have it hooked up to a pair of Homepods I got cheap, so the sound is astoundingly good too.
Also, you get 3 months of TV+ when you buy one, so you can always see their shows (there aren't many) as well. For All Mankind is bloody good.

That’s petty much what I’m after, one box to do everything.
I’ve just moved back to apple with a new MacBook air so they gave me 5 months free Apple TV+ and I’ve been pretty unimpressed with it so far. In fact all the subscription services seem to be pretty poor from what I’ve seen so far. -

The original big HomePods or the new smaller Homepods?
And if it is the big ones, how does it sound? As good as a normal soundbar?

Question for the Mac Heads…
Is the Apple TV any good if you don’t have the Apple TV+ subscription?
Not sure it’s worth upgrading from my Roku and relegating the Roku to the garage to use with the turbo?
Mainly going to be used for iPlayer, Eurosport and other streaming from an iPad or MacBook.
