Reason number 45382089735798203609587432589207508924 why I don't like Apple. If people hadn't lost their absolute shit over this, they would have just kept it on their platform only.

That's a great present, but when is Apple going to give us what we really want?

-
I'd rather just go buy a dvd with all the Charlie Brown specials on it for roughly the same price as an apple tv subscription.
-
But will they have this?
-
@powderhound
I have them on VHS!Anyway, the great news is they will now also be on PBS.

@chariotoflove Times like this, I'm glad I'm a crabby old man at heart, who insists on owning physical copies of things. I have all the Peanuts specials on DVD.
-
@derpwagon Yes, but they also get credit for responding to the criticism in a positive way.
-
Likely only due to concern for their bottom line, not actually caring about anyone.
