NEW YORK (AP) - Tremble, cable: Apple has its sights on you.
Tremble, Netflix: Silicon Valley's brightest is out to get you, too.
The latest incarnation of Apple TV, a white box the size of a
hardback book that connects to your TV, is an attractive alternative
to the usual ways we get our video content, even if it still has
room for improvement.
When it launched in March last year, Apple TV was mainly a way
for users to get their iTunes content to play on the TV. You could
buy movies on the computer, then transfer them to Apple TV, a slow
process and hardly worth it. The movies were expensive and of poor
visual quality.
