So same as Amazon Prime and Netflix then. Anything less than HDR10 and/or Dolby Vision, and anything less than Dolby Atmos sound, would leave Apple TV+ as 'second rate' in comparison.
Bit like SkyQ all nice looking but lacks HDR, HLG
Yep - tvOS has framework support for all the three main flavours of HDR out in the wild : HDR10, Dolby Vision and HLG.
I'm not aware of any UK Apple TV app that uses HLG at the moment. (I think there is limited MPEG-DASH support in tvOS - which may be why iPlayer doesn't support UHD HLG iPlayer?)
