Does it have spotify? I'd like a way to route spotify into the older receiver more easily, rather than fire up the PS3 for example.
Jaxson: Keen to hear on this myself.
Are these of use in NZ, without having a VPN setup for example?
Typically I've found the Apple Ecostructure very tied down, but Apple TV does allow for the screen casting/mirror thing, so might be of use for that. Does it have spotify? I'd like a way to route spotify into the older receiver more easily, rather than fire up the PS3 for example.

tdgeek: I have one, they are great, hardly use it. Its a paperweight for non US users. But it has Netflix, well so does other stuff. If the rumoured ATV4 supports apps, as it runs on iOS, that will be a game changer, be close to a one box SVOD solution then, if it happens

A paperweight for non-US users? That's simply not true. We use ours to connect to my iMac which has all of our movies, TV shows on and we stream these to the TV which is connected to the Apple TV. Works flawlessly. I have tried WD TV Live as well as XMBC or whatever it is now called and the Apple TV/iTunes combination is unbeatable. The other systems I tried were either too slow or too cumbersome to setup and use. Sure the Apple TV works best in the Apple eco-system/walled garden but it is nonetheless a terrific device. Just because it doesn't work for some people, doesn't mean it is a "paperweight".
