Ben Lang does ask an interesting question:
So within like 2 months a launch a dev built a Vision Pro app that offers Netflix and Prime Video with 4K streaming, native controls, and an even surround sound (which you can’t get via the browser). Apple also happily approved the app. https://roadtovr.com/netflix-vision-pro-app-supercut/ So why hasn’t something like this cropped up on Quest after almost 5 years?
I was not aware that a netflix app with full resolution does not exist on the Quest platform. This really does speak to the hardware differences between AVP and Quest.

Demo app from a developer from Berkeley AI Research (BAIR). Keep in mind, I’m not exactly sure how he has managed to do this because real time camera feed is off limits to developer. Maybe he’s working directly with Apple.

This is an extreme example, but imagine if movies had specific moment converted into an immersive experience. There’s a lot of potential to make an impact here, where other VR/AR platforms cannot.
