The next Apple TV might not have a lot of room for apps and games if a new report by 9to5Mac (http://9to5mac.com/2015/09/02/apple-tv-4-2015-specs/) proves accurate.</p><p>
The site, which tends to have a strong record with Apple rumors, claims that Apple’s next set-top box won’t exceed 16GB of storage. Apple may include 16GB in the base model,  reportedly priced at $149 (http://www.techhive.com/article/2979046/streaming-hardware/apple-tv-report-claims-universal-search-149-starting-price.html), or it could charge $199 version for the 16GB version while putting just 8GB in the base model.</p><p>
In any case, the latest report appears to contradict earlier rumors from both 9to5Mac (http://9to5mac.com/2015/08/17/what-will-septembers-new-ios-9-based-apple-tv-bring-to-the-living-room/) and BuzzFeed (http://www.buzzfeed.com/johnpaczkowski/new-apple-tv-set-top-will-debut-this-summer-with-app-store-s#.tlOX2Jq2y). Last month, 9to5Mac said it expected at least 32GB of storage in the new Apple TV, and BuzzFeed reported in March that the new device would have “well beyond” the 8 GB in the current Apple TV.</p><p class="jumpTag"><a href="/article/2980134/streaming-hardware/latest-apple-tv-rumor-suggests-skimpier-storage-reiterates-lack-of-4k.html#jump">To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here[/url]</p></section></article>
