Live TV vs. DVR
I am using Apple TV as a stream device and will not even consider another alternative. On that device, there is no option to prevent Live TV from starting as soon as the app is started. I NEVER WATCH LIVE TV. Also, when I skip-forward using the SIRI remote, it will sometimes skip to LIVE TV from the LIBRARY show that I was watching. Very annoying. Also, at times, I am never sure if I'm looking at the LIVE TV version of a show or the LIBRARY version, because there is no indicator in the line above the show as to which it is....and it almost always switches to the LIVE version (which I hate). It's obvious that this app is developed from a system where LIVE is preferred and DVR is an after-thought. YouTube TV was a much better UI. BTW, the IPad app has the option of disabling LIVE TV at startup.

I think those options are on available for mobile devices. You notice they are greyed out meaning you can not change them.

Never been for steaming devices. iPad is considered a mobile device.
