Good to know more about Apple TV. On the way of music it little bit lesser to fulfill its customers requirements.

Is that a remote? I wonder why they didnt say anything bad about that remote design. Less button but the size of the remote is over exaggerating. That remote looks like a toy, and even Wii-mote looks way better

This VINCENT NGUYEN is a flat-out PAID publicist for APPLE. He just gave bias, weak and baseless judgements on the phenominal Galaxy Note while everybody including former iPhone users are in love with it. And from what I read, he heaps praises on just about every apple product he touches. So much for credibility. I AM NOW OFFICIALLY TURNED OFF FROM READING SLASHGEAR REVIEWS! PRAISE RELEASES FOR APPLE ALL THE WAY!

Based on the fact that when the MacBook Air was released, the portable DVD drive, you could not play DVD movies due to DRM. So even if you could mount the DVD in your MacBook, it probably wont play commercial DVDs.

Ripped DVD movies will probably work fine.

AppleTV 2nd Gen did YouTube at 720, the limit of the device. I have purchased the new model yet so I don’t know about that one.

I would’ve liked to have seen support for higher resolution myself.

It’s extremely disappointing that with both new pieces of hardware, AirPlay Video Mirroring (and Dual Screen support for iOS apps) is STILL limited to 1280×720 pixels.

Anyone know if Airplay works with the iPhone 4s?
Also, for YouTube, up to what resolution do YouTube videos play up to on the Apple TV?

Hello,
Thanks for this first feedback.
Did you notice any improvement on Airplay mirroring for Games, like Asphalt6 or MetalStorm:Wingman ?
With Apple TV 2 (2010), I experience lags, despite having the Apple TV connected in Ethernet to my WiFi N Router that is close to the TV (and the iPad2 – so max WiFi bandwidth). I was wondering if this was relative to the processor of the Apple TV 2 that is less powerfull than the one of the iPad 2.
So any noticeable improvements ?
Thanks for your feedbacks

The ATV 2 didn’t have the ability to purchase music, unless you’re referring to the 1st gen. If you have an IOS device you can purchase music there, and with iTunes Match the song(s) will appear on ATV via iCloud.

Yeah people were touting this as not needing a PC or iTunes to get this to work, but it kinda sounds like you need a PC or an iPhone to purchase music. iCloud eliminates the need to stream off a PC or server.

Strange that this would be billed as a hobby device, when the only way to treat it like a hobby device is to jailbreak it to install Plex or XBMC.

It looks like an ok product, but I have a Roku that works just fine.

What bothers me about the new apple tv is no access to the music store. I use to browse and purchase music that way and Apple strangly removed it. Thankfully spotify works with Airplay! Shh.. Don’t tell Apple.
