OK I have a macbook and I have apple tv. I love both of them. The problem is I am using up a ton of HD space for tv shows and movies on my macbook. I dont have any of them saved to my apple tv. I just run the shows and such wirelessly when I want to watch them.

I was looking into buying a time capsule. My understanding is I can transfer all my itunes over to time capsule and access is via wireless network on my apple tv as long as I use my laptop as a go between , is this correct? Also is there any other wireless external HD I could use. I only ask because it seems that there are a ton of problems with time capsule based on apple.com reviews, namely the longevity of just 18mos or so. Anyway Thanks for the help in advance!
