Apple TV Rocks

Saturday, April 05, 2008 Filed in: Apple

I took the plunge and got an Apple TV for our living room (we already had one in the office). The Device is cross-platform and works really well. Apple updated the software in February and added some great features. Here's what I like the most:

The HD Rentals work great and look on par with Blu-ray
Movies are affordable, priced between $2.99 and $4.99
Downloads start to play in less than 5 minutes
I can watch podcasts on the big screen (it's weird to watch yourself in HD)
Accessing music, movies, and photos from any computer in the house is near instant
The device is easy to hook up
My three-year old can figure it out
YouTube's expected switch to bigger image size will be great
