Apple is reportedly in talks with Hollywood studios to licence movies and other programming to greatly expand its content library.
Apple TV+ has firmly established itself as astreaming servicefor top quality, original TV shows. It has also carved itself a niche as thetop platform for sci-fi.
However, it severely lacks in one area when compared withNetflix,Amazon PrimeVideo andDisney+ – its content library is much smaller.
That’s thanks to the service’s main selling point, that it focuses on premium exclusive programming that Apple commissions and makes itself. It has largely paid off, with series likeTed Lasso,For All Mankind,Severance,Slow Horses, andThe Morning Show, garnering multiple awards and becoming part of the everyday zeitgeist.
But to progress it needs more. That’s perhaps why it is rumoured to be in talks with Hollywood studios to greatly expand its catalogue through movie licensing.
But it’s just not enough.

Hopefully, this latest venture proves to be permanent and global.
Bloomberg reportsthat the negotiations could even include non-Apple TV programming too, putting the service firmly in the same space as its main rivals. It writes that “people familiar with the matter” have revealed the discussions could result in expanded Apple TV+ libraries “both in the US and abroad”.
That would make Apple TV a must-have service for many, who can access it across multiplestreaming devices, Smart TVs, mobiles (barAndroid, at present), and games consoles.
