my use for the Apple TV was commercial. Adding photos to a shared gallery allows me to control the photos, or in my case, promotional material and advertisements just works.

I bought this not really expecting much. WhenI hooked it up I was stunned! It was the clearest most detailed picture I ever had on my television. Best thing I ever bought.

I love my Apple TV. I was able to drop my cable TV and cut my bill by $100/month. I have both Netflix and hulu plus and never have any issues watching my favorite programs

As with most of the steaming devices, this is a smoother and better experience than most of the smart TV internal apps. At $64.95 this is a great deal. I prefer it over the newer version because you can use IP drivers with home automation systems and they don't allow that on the new ones...only IR control from external control systems.
I can't give it 5 stars because I have used a lot of these and, although they are great when they are working, they can often require a reboot and have some occasional networking issues. Typical Apple, you get very little feedback when there is an issues....just their stupid spinning wheel. Not an issue for me as I have other resources, but very frustrating for my clients.

AppleTV is very a very typical Apple product. It is well designed, both hardware and software, easy to setup and easy to use for it's intended purpose. Airplay from recent Macs and IOS devices also works amazingly well. You should evaluate the services that are currently supported before purchasing to ensure they meet your expectations as the device does not currently allow targeting arbitrary sources of videos, web pages or applications.

I was sick and tired of fighting with Roku and trying to remote control Wii as a streaming device was unnerving.
The AppleTV device works perfect for me and I love it!

Finding new applications

After purchasing a new MacBook Air laptop, I wanted to use the Blu Ray application with our new Samsung Smart TV. After buying APPLE TV, I began imagining all the applications using this attachment. The first we discovered was watching streamed sporting events on our 50" TV. Also, I purchase education DVD's and now my wife and I can watch them on our TV together rather than watch them separately or crowd around our laptop screen. Applications we will find in the future are probably too numerous to list. For us, Apple TV is a necessity that has helped us to gain so much more pleasure from our Apple MacBook Air.

As an Apple user, getting the Apple TV just made more sense than the Chromecast. Any thing not already on Apple TV's preinstalled apps works well with my iPhone, iPad, and MacBook Pro. I'm able to send content from my iPhone/iPad/Mac to the TV without interrupting whatever else I may have been doing on my phone (not fullscreen based). Whether that's checking emails or just surfing the web normally. Great product! Great quality!

We finally decided to cancel cable and buy an Apple TV. In combination with a digital tuner, we have all the content we want with huge savings vs cable. We like that there is no annual fee to use, just one flat purchase price and then you buy shows by season or episode. Our netflix stream right onto it so we no longer need our roku either.
Only part that is a negative is that you need to buy a separate Apple TV for each tv.

This is the third one of the Apple TV's I have purchased. They work great and save us a ton by being able to ditch the cable. Quality product as one would expect of Apple.

This product was so easy to setup that even the novice internet user should have little problem getting up and running. It is easy to move from room to room if necessary. Once up and running, the user guide/interface is easy to navigate, and we found our programs with no problems at all. The box is small enough to fit just about anywhere, and the remote is nice and small as you would expect from Apple. Great product and great value.
