XP: Apple tv

[futurepivko]

My H's birthday is June 1, and he's so hard to buy for...I thought Apple tv might be a cool and useful gift. Any experiences/thoughts?

We've had one for about a month and I love it. I was skeptical at first but it's so nice to stream netflix or watch shows we've bought on iTunes.

The one thing I wish it had is Hulu+ compatibility, but I can deal.

Love it!

We use it for streaming video (Netflix) and music (iTunes) since we aren't gamers. My nephew uses his gaming console for the same thing.

Good to know! We aren't gamers either.

You may want to consider a Roku as well. Similar tech, and I think it does Hulu and Netflix. Also cheaper. I think it wad the deal of the day today on woot.com

We have an apple tv and a roku. The roku was about half the cost & both are awesome. We can get Hulu with roku & apple with the other. Both Netflix. I'd recommend either.

We love our roku!

If you already have a lot of video in iTunes, the Apple TV is the way to go. We've used one for several years. It's also nice to pump video/music to it from iPhone/iPad/iPod.

We have one and love it. You can sync your iPhone to it and play anything from your phone on your TV and in the next month or so you'll be able to do it with any mac computer.

Apple TV has changed my life. I LOVE it! I was skeptical at first, but seriously, it is the best thing ever.

We use our apple tv to stream pandora and play via our surround sound system. I LOVE it. We don't have cable either so when ds watches a movie, we play it from on of our apple devices and output to the tv.
