The bigger problem facing the new Apple TV could be its price, analysts said. Reports suggest that Apple will price the device at $150.

At that price, Apple could have a hard time finding buyers other than its most loyal fans, said Barbara Kraus, an analyst who covers the connected device market for Parks Associates.
