It appears the Apple TV streaming platform including continue watching plus general Apple TV app functionality, purchased content, etc. are currently experiencing an outage.

It’s clear that Apple is aware of the issue and are working to restore it as quickly as possible.

In the meantime, please avoid creating duplicate posts reporting your frustrations about the outage. If you’d like to discuss the issue or share updates, please do so in this thread. All other posts related to the outage will be deleted.

Yes, outages are frustrating, but there’s nothing the community here can do to speed up the fix. A little patience goes a long way, and hopefully all functionality will be back to normal soon.

We’ll update this thread if any official information becomes available.

EDIT: service is back up. All is well.

This pic is from 2020. During a homebound pandemic, I decided to get back into collecting physical media after losing my bluray collection in a fire 12 years earlier. I’d been an admirer of Criterion for years and always appreciated the care they put into their releases, restorations, supplements and artwork. But strangely enough, I’d never actually bought one until the pandemic.

I saw many of these films in theaters as a college student in NYC during the late 90s/early 00s and they all represent so much of what made me fall in love with cinema. Do The Right Thing, The Thin Red Line, Topsy Turvy, Traffic, Being John Malkovich, Mulholland Dr. all fundamentally changed the way I thought about movies and storytelling as a whole.

Two of these are still sealed, of course. I won’t tell you which. But when I look at this picture (and my full collection), I’m grateful for Criterion. I always smile a bit when I see someone here post their very first haul because every collection has a beginning. This was mine. And yes, thanks to the sales, this innocent little stack has grown into something much harder to explain to my wallet.

These are from the Gruv Father’s Day, Prime Day, and Arrow 2 for $60 sales. I’ll probably pick up A few releases from the B&N 50% off Criterion and Arrow 50% off sales. I think I’ll be done with pickups for a while after that.
