If you've been considering subscribing to Apple TV Plus but have waiting for a sign, then consider this your sign: an incredibly Black Friday streaming deal makes the subscription service totally free for three months.
Now, this isn't an official Apple TV Plus Black Friday deal, and I think it's unlikely that Apple will offer these this year. Instead, it's offered by Roku, and it's exclusively for people who own a Roku device.
Bear in mind that Roku devices are as cheap as $17.99 right now because they too have Black Friday deals on them. So it's cheaper to buy one of these (the Roku Express is the cheapest one) than pay the usual $9.99 fee for your first three months.
I'll list some Roku deals below that you can pick from, and the company's TVs and streaming sticks alike are on offer. All you need to do to get the free three months of Apple TV Plus is sign up through your Roku device until Thursday, January 2 when it expires.
Apple TV Plus isn't the only free streaming service right now as Apple Music can also be tested for three months for free if you sign up via Roku. Plenty more streaming services are available for a lower price over Black Friday like Max, Paramount Plus, MGM Plus and Discovery Plus so it's a great time to own (or buy) a Roku device.
For any more information, check out the Roku Blog posting about all of its deals here.

There are also plenty of Roku TVs on offer from the company's Select, Plus and Pro lines in different sizes, and you can find the Amazon listings for those here.
How to get the free Apple TV Plus
Once you've bought and received the Roku player, you'll need to set it up quickly to get the deal, because this only works if you sign up on or before Monday, December 2.
When it's working, set up Apple TV Plus and you'll be prompted with the promotion to try the streaming service for free.
Technically, you don't need to have bought a streaming device to make the most of this deal, so if you already own a Roku TV or stick you can make the most of it too.
