Apple TV question?

Question

I'm interested. How exactly does it work? What do I need to set it up and how much would it all come out to including the purchas price and any monthly bills? Thank you to all those who respond.

Answer 1

Think of an apple Tv as a big ipod you connect next to your TV.
No monthly fees, but sunchronizing photos and music is a major pain (and slow). Plus, the local drive is not that big.

For about the same, I would buy an Xbox and use it as a media extender (you need a Media OS though) and you can use it to control your PC and access remote content.
For even less, I would get a Digital media receiver from Linksys or netgear.
