Netflix is finally killing off support for 2nd and 3rd generation Apple TVs
It’s probably time to get rid of that thin second or third-generation Apple TV set-top box, as even Netflix is abandoning the older gear.

In an email to customers, Netflix has warning users of old Apple TVs that their days of using the service on the decade-old hardware is coming to an end. In the email, the company says that it is sun-setting support for them on July 31, 2024.
It says that it is doing this to “maintain the best possible Netflix experience.” It’s not clear why the device is getting axed, other than age. Codec support may be an issue as well.
For now, Apple’s Home Sharing, AirPlay. And Apple apps still work on the older device which were the last to have optical audio out. It feels like it’s just a matter of time until the company turns them off, though.
