After months of interest and curiosity, along with reports of production budgets that have stretched into the tens of millions of dollars, Apple is set to finally enter new business territory that couldn’t be more different from the sleek gadgets the iPhone maker is known for. Apple TV+, the company’s streaming video service that will fight for a bit of the same ground as Netflix, is set to launch one week from today (on November 1).
Getting here has involved lots of dealmaking behind the scenes, to both finagle participation from Hollywood talent and executives and to build up a launch-day slate of splashy TV series. All that remains now is convincing users to fork over $4.99/month to pay for the service, which you’ll use Apple’s existing Apple TV app to watch. To help make that determination, the following is meant to serve as a guide and offer some of the major details you need to know.
