paying for TV guide

from what I can tell after a month of "use" Apple TV is a subscription based TV guide. with no actual worthwhile content. basically as fair as I can find, apple are charging monthly for a list of programmes that you can pay to view. Programmes that are free elsewhere as they are old. can anyone tell me different? does anyone actually pay apple for this crap? obviously it's free trial because I'd be extremely angry if I'd paid to find out it's a list of things you pay to view

You may have misunderstood what Apple TV+ (note the ‘Plus’) is all about.

  • Apple TV+ is a subscription streaming service for Apple Original content. No additional payment is asked from subscribers to access this content. To access Apple TV+ content, you have to use the Apple TV app.

The Apple TV app also has other content in it, which is unrelated to the Apple TV+ subscription:

  • iTunes Store movies and TV show are also available in the Apple TV app (buy or rent per title)
  • other premium Apple TV app Channels are also available in the Apple TV app, each by subscription.
