There is an American Tech reviewer on You Tube who works for Digital Trends. His name is Caleb Denison, and I find him to be unbiased in his opinions. He will also post new videos if he believes that he was incorrect in his appraisal of something that he already reviewed. This video is about the U-Turn that he has on his opinion of the Apple TV 4K. I am posting this video, because I agree with his updated review that the Apple TV 4K is the best streaming box available.

It's only my wallet that was happy you were going to leave. Everything you post about updates and sales was an excuse to add more to my library haha. But the effort you go to to post everything and the way you post it too is definitely appreciated, and I imagine there's a lot of people like me who might be silent with posting but look forward to clicking that link every time the email comes in to say there's a new post.

APPLE TV 4K and APPLE TV HD FIRMWARE UPDATES.
The Apple TV firmware updates seem to come at regular intervals. The last update, 15.4.1 was on March 31st.
Its a good thing to keep your little box updated to the latest firmware. The updates are usually just for bug fixes, but occasionally there will be a major one.
You can update manually or automatically. I have my Apple TV 4K set to update automatically. To access the settings, here is the pathway.
Go to SETTINGS > SYSTEM > SOFTWARE UPDATES and select UPDATE SOFTWARE. If there is an update available there will be a message informing you. If not, you will see a message advising that your firmware is up to date.
Alternatively; Follow the above steps, and turn AUTOMATICALLY UPDATE to ON, then you can forget about updating in future. It will be done automatically.
I realise that most owners will know this, but there are always newbies coming on board, so, hopefully, this will be helpful to some. 😀
