Comments on: Has Apple Done "TV" and Movies Right This Time?

I absolutely love the Apple TV. My biggest complaints are:

a. lack of decent HD rental content
b. delay in the ability to rent day and date titles in HD(usually 1-2 weeks)
c. inability to purchase day and date movie titles in HD

I think Apple TV would be even better if there was a subscription service for rentals, ala Netflix. For instance, 29.99 a month for unlimited HD rentals would be cool.

I think Apple TV has a long way to go still, there is still not enough content on there as far as HD Movie Rentals and I don’t even think they have reached the amount of movies that they had promised. In the future it might be a necessary piece of hardware depending on how well it can incorporate itself with other devices and networks. But it is a good start to all in one package.

I think Apple TV 2 will be as distributive as the iPod was to the music business. Movies really are what people want and the idea that you now don’t have to leave the house to rent a movie is a major convenience.

All-in-all, I think Apple will have another huge hit on their hands!

I bought one and think it is a waste on money. My husband and I have used it maybe five time in the nine months we’ve had it. The movie rentals may make it more useful. I am excited to try it and see.
