AppleTV…Why Not?

When the AppleTV was announced last year, one red flag immediately flew up in the feature list… what about HDTV? Not “near-HD” quality or “DVD quality”, why wasn’t Apple talking up what was a rapidly-becoming-mainstream format?

Because it’s not natively set-up to deal with HD. No recording and watching live content. Let alone an ATSC tuner. So it’s not really the same type of machine as a Tivo.

Hence, my current static situation with EyeTV, DVD Assist, VLC, & Front Row continues to sate my longing for Tivo’s Best of Breed interface.

  1. What’s this Best of Breed interface all about?

    “Best In Breed” is a just description I’m using to emphasize that Tivo is the most-finely executed TV interface I’ve used.

    Sorry for the confusion if you thought I meant something else!
