Re: AppleTV formerly iTV



I'm with you, Ian.

Roll up! Roll up! Download movies from iTunes for only the same cost as
a full price DVD from the High Street!  Compressed out of existance for
minimum download times!

Like ringtones and the lottery, the aim is to part simpletons from their
cash.

Only if AllofMP4.com starts up in Russia might it be worth it...

BTW, the specs list H.264 as the only supported video format, so it
would be possible to convert your DVDs if you could be assed (bye bye
chapters).  Interestingly, they mention support for 1080i TVs but the
highest resolution video format is 1280x720p.  With 1080p TVs now
becoming more common, that seems a bit of an oversight.
