No Netflix for Old Sony TVs

Netflix Cuts the Cord on Older Sony and Apple TV Devices: Frustration Mounts as Perfectly Functional TVs Lose Streaming Service
Netflix users with certain Sony and Apple TV devices are in for a rude awakening. In a move that has many subscribers up in arms, the streaming giant is pulling the plug on its app for a range of older models. Here's the breakdown:
Picture
​The Affected Devices:
  • Sony BRAVIA TVs (Asia Pacific): 37 models from 2014 will lose Netflix support starting July 24th, 2024. ([List of affected Sony models below])
  • Apple TV Devices: Second and third generation models will no longer be able to stream Netflix after July 31st, 2024.
Why the Cut-Off?
According to Sony, the decision is due to "technical limitations" on these older devices. However, many users are frustrated, especially since their TVs are still in perfectly good working order. Some even point out that their Sony remotes have a dedicated Netflix button, highlighting the “utter cheek” of the move.
Is There a Workaround?
There is a silver lining for affected users. You can still access Netflix through these devices by using a separate streaming device like Google Chromecast or Amazon Fire TV Stick.
User Frustration
Social media is abuzz with complaints from disgruntled Netflix subscribers. Many point out the inconvenience and question the need to abandon functional devices.
The Takeaway:
If you own a Sony BRAVIA TV from 2014 or an older Apple TV device, it's time to consider alternative ways to stream Netflix. While the move is frustrating for some, it's a reminder that technology constantly evolves, and older devices eventually reach their end-of-life support.
Truth is, you’ll have a better experience with a streaming stick 🙂
