Apple TV is looking very attractive these days.
I don't think it's great if you watch lots of TV or sports at the moment. But for someone like myself who only watches a couple selected shows I think it will be great. I think the HD offerings are lack luster (so I've heard, not seen). But with the money I will save from my huge cable bill I will be able to buy more Blu-rays. Plus the ability to download any episode is a plus. If I want to try out a show I can download the first episode instead of starting in the middle of the season. And for shows like South Park. I end up paying to watch them on cable and then I pay again to buy the physical copies. I would only have to pay once with Apple TV.
I think after the hockey season I will be scaling my cable subscription back a lot. I might keep basic cable and give the Apple TV a shot. If Shaw allowed me to have only the HD channels and not pay for everything else underneath I would buy an Apple TV right now.
