Review - Apple TV - Part 8

Conclusion - Part 2

In case you already have movies in H.264 or MPEG4, or are able to purchase movies online, you’ll surely find the Apple TV a good device. If your video collection is in any other format and you cannot purchase movies online, maybe it’s more convenient to wait for a reviewed model

Besides what was previously mentioned, another consideration must be made about the Apple TV’s hard disk capacity. 40 GB are too little if you want to store a good number of movies. Apple should have offered a bigger hard disk, even if in built-to-order. Or even better, allow the USB2 port from the Apple TV to connect to external disks.

Apple TV is surely a good starting point and it seems that the price is adequate to what it offers. Maybe it will become a great product if it succeeds, in the future, to become what its first intention was: a full home entertainment system.

The road, however, seems a little long yet.
