If you are an Apple TV owner, you might want to hit the auto update feature and download the latest software update. Anyone actually tried out the new update? Did it make things better? Worse? What about the awful picture quality on SD TV?

Apple CEO Steve Jobs talked about "Apple TV Take Two" at Macworld Expo in San Francisco, Calif. in January. The major upgrade to the software that controls Apple's TV convergence device offers a host of new features, such as the ability to purchase and download video and music directly from iTunes instead of having to use a Mac or PC first.

I can't check any of this stuff out yet because I am still working but I'll be able to answer some of those question later when I get a chance to go to my buddy's house and check it out first hand.
 
Apple TV has been a pretty big flop compared to what they hoped it would sell hasn't it?
 
I tried HD rentals last night and they actually look great. Its not quite up to par with bluray but im not let down by any means either, it is what it is. Its convenient to rent HD movies with the click of a button now and be watching within minutes thats for sure.
 
For only 24 hours of rental, it should be 50 cents a movie, hd or not

Yea i agree. $3-4 for a digital movie is a little expensive. Theres a movie place right around the corner that rents movies for $1 for 24 hours.
I think $1 SD, $2 HD tops prices.

I agree, for the price of 2 movie rentals, you could get netflix (8.99) and have unlimited digital movie rentals, plus you can even have one DVD at a time.
