Apple is known to be very ungenerous when it comes to opening up its ecosystem to competition.

Apple TV on Android could increase the number of subscribers to the Apple One offer
The Cupertino company wants to increase the number of subscribers to its video streaming service, Apple TV+. Being well aware that, despite all the qualities of its streaming box, not everyone has the means or the desire to equip themselves with an Apple TV 4K, the company has decided to relax its policy. The goal now is to make its service available on as wide a variety of devices as possible. A strategy identical to that adopted by Microsoft which, although it still sells computers, now sees itself more as a software company.
