I have all Mac products, mostly because I enjoy the seamless transition of having all my information available in any device I'm currently using. Also I find them simple, user friendly, and also easy to learn just from daily use. I didn't know anything about Apple TV went I went into the store. I didn't know the difference between the available versions either. The store associate was very helpful in telling me I could use this product, and didn't need the option of storage on the newer products because I have all Mac products so I could stream through Air Play versus keeping music and such stored on the device. It is just like every other Mac product. Extremely effective with one of the most simple remotes possible. I highly recommend this product to other Mac users, and anyone who wants a stress-free technological experience.

The roku was very easy to set up as well as choose channel options. I have been using for 3 weeks and have been impressed with the speed of uploads etc. and lack of buffering wait time.

This device is great to have. Even though it generally does most of what my blu-ray player can do - you can take this with you when you travel and easily access your Netflix, Hulu, etc.

Love the convenience and ease of the Apple TV. Easy to set up and great for travel. I watch a lot of movies on Netflix and HBO and some hotels don't always have the best channel selections but they do have WIFI. So I keep my spare unit in my travel bag and it goes with me everywhere I go.

This is a great product which we purchased to stream Netflix. It also has the ability to wirelessly display whatever is on your computer monitor to the TV the Apple TV is connected to.

I purchased this for one reason to watch WWE network. And its great! Very easy to setup and use. My 5 year old niece figured it out in a few minutes. Now I use it to watch everything.

We now have 2 of these in our home (bedroom and TV room) and I also set one up for my mother-in-law in her apartment.
I've used many streaming options - Smart TV (LG), TiVO, X-Box 360, PlayStation 3, etc. They all work and have their advantages, but the simplicity of the Apple TV is tough to beat - I've helped friends set up their smart BluRay players and so on and they are always more complex and I end up as tech support for them. This device is just about as simple as it is possible to be.
A few great things, especially if you have other Apple devices:
-Airplay from an iPad or iPhone is really a great feature and better than you might think. Have a video you want to play but can't stream to the Apple TV from you computer? Stream it to your iPad (many apps available for that) and then mirror it to the TV.
-Streaming movies and music from your iTunes library is quick and easy (as long as you set up Home Sharing on your PC).
-You can use your iPad or iPhone as a remote control. This may not seem like a big deal but the value comes from being able to TYPE using your device's keyboard. Ever try searching for a movie or video on NetFlix or YouTube - moving the cursor around to the character you want? If you have an iPhone, you can just type. I use this all the time.
What isn't so great:
-If you don't use iTunes and don't have other iDevices, i think there's probably not a lot of value here. Sure, you can use NetFlix but that is available so commonly now that I wouldn't buy a device just for that purpose.
-Lack of Amazon streaming, Vudu, etc. is a serious drawback, especially if you don't have other streaming devices. I own movies on Vudu and Amazon, so not being able to stream them to the device is a little annoying (I just use my PS3 for that now).

The Apple TV Is very Easy to setup and use. I had my unit working 5 minutes out of the box! Small device but it does an excellent job in streaming Netflix--which is why I purchased it.

The Apple TV is super easy to use and set up. If you are looking for an internet connected device that has Netflix, Hulu, HBO, Showtime, etc, then this is one of the best devices. I wish it was a little cheaper, but it has gone down in price from when I was first considering buying it.

Like everything Apple, this was super easy to set up and run. Setup took about ten minutes to hook up and set the software up. It's so easy my elderly parents can use it with ease.

Works great and more programs are being added. Only issue is when it updates with new software you have enter new log in info for some applications. The update process is a little slow.

Setup was fast and easy and speed is really fast. After initial setup, some apps need to be updated and that will take some time to download and install, but other than that no issues.
