Wow! The original first comment to this article mentioned an error in the article. The error in the article has been corrected and the comment has been deleted. I know this to be true because I clicked the Like button for the comment. This was not expected at all.

Moving on...

I am looking forward to the Apple TV+/Mariah Carey collaboration. Her first Christmas CD is 25 years old and continues to top the charts during the Christmas season. Her second Christmas CD is forgettable. I own both CDs.

Apple has had Christmas commercial hits for a few years. I am hoping the “heartwarming story that brings the world together” is on the level of those commercials.
