Would love to know if this will be supported on Gen 3 Apple TVs. I can't upgrade to the Gen 4 since it doesn't have Optical Audio out support for Sonos.

I tweeted Amazon Prime in the last hour asking them about Prime Video coming to "all Apple TVs" They replied, yes it's coming to gen 2, 3 and 4...so I guess we are getting a long overdue update to the gen 2 and 3 models!! Really happy about this as I own two gen 3s. I wonder what else might be coming in that update?

I use Prime video all the time. So this is definitely an added benefit for me and it's expanded capabilities with Apple.

Nice, now if we could run Kodi on the aTV, there would be no need to have a firestick.

It would be nice if there was a decent Laptop App in the Appstore too.
