Later this month, all WebOS-based LG televisions will get an app for Google Play Movies & TV, as will older LG TVs running NetCast 4.0 or 4.5. Still, having Google Play will be helpful for users who've already built up a video catalog in Google's ecosystem.
Apps and other media will be found through the LG Content Store, which is found on the home screen in the ribbon menu. 2. Navigate to the app store. While the LG Content Store is filled with movies and shows, apps are found in a separate section of the store.
