Google TV showing ads on the home screen convinced me to buy an Apple TV. Had to go back to a set-top box - to use the same apps I have built into the TV - just because Apple won't spam me with this shit.

Apple won't spam you with this shit yet

Rumors are that Apple Maps advertising is incoming soon

the only way they will continue with AppleTV (TV+) is to put ads. they haven't gained enough subscribers to keep that business unit solvent.

It's a good tip, I may end up doing that. I'm hoping that Apple has better standards for third party streaming apps (just yesterday I made a Ask HN post about how terrible they are)
