The End of iTunes

That's a little far reaching I think.

A TV's primary purpose is to consume video content. It "can" play music, podcasts, streaming audio, but a TV is better suited to movies, tv shows, etc...

To say the iTunes brand or iTunes Music is dead because it wasn't given a spot on a TV as an app is a bit crazy.

Now if the next iOS / iPhone didn't come with iTunes Music pre-installed; ok - there's a pivot happening here and a bigger story.
