First it was change the password from the account you created 15 years ago when you last had an iPhone. Now its go onto ITunes and add a payment method. now iTunes wants me to answer the security I created 15 years ago. This process is the stupidest one I’ve ever experienced out of all the streaming services. Why the hell can’t I just add an apple card or my CC In the app.

Edit: after the reseting of my long forgotten answers to the security questions I had to set up 2 point security and then after that it tells me I need to go to the apple store to add a payment method.

    I gave up and am going to pirate the one show I wanted to watch.

    Ps5 here, they offered 3 months free, I started creating the account. It tells me to go to appleid to do some final account setup. I verify my email, verify my credit card, verify my phone number, then it says hey here’s how your data will be used then asks me to click continue.

    That continue button no work on any platform I can use.

    And I can’t finish the sign up so I guess I’m done. I did contact Apple support who told me they had to call me… at 1 am… no thanks.

    Because its a store/purchase system too, its more comparable to Amazon Prime than Netflix. Prime is also pretty secure as its tied into your whole Amazon account.

    Apple TV’s details are peoples whole Apple accounts which is all saved passwords, icloud accounts etc

    I do think they should look into separating the two. This would open up more users who just want the TV portion.
