What I was looking for:
- There should be films available on the Internet
- The films (at least new) should be available in the 1080p resolution
- The receiver should max. cost around 100
- The receiver should be able to be connected via Wi-Fi
- Films should like in a video store for a "relatively" small fee can be hired with no monthly fee or subscription!
- The film should stand after pressing on "borrowing" some time available, so that you have to watch it not immediately
- Borrowed the film should be within a certain time, at no extra charge can be viewed multiple times
- There should be an optical audio output for connection to be present my Dolby Digital Receiver
- To borrow the films should the PC not turned a must
All this have I found the Apple TV.
The installation went so fast that I thought something is not right and would make itself felt.
Simply connect a HDMI cable to the TV, connect the optical cable to the receiver and of course connect the power cable.
After starting only choose the right wireless network from the list and enter the password and then log in to the iTunes Accound, finished.
Of course you can still his music and so on stream from the PC and use such as Youtube, but that's not terribly important to me.
But I find the possibility to movie trailers for free to look really great.
The Rental prices I find quite ok, it starts at 0.99 where of course no films can be found.
Recent movies cost from 3.99, for example I (06:04:13) the film "Dredd" looked at yesterday for 4.99 and can watch him within 48 hours as often as I want.
Comparing the now with a normal video library of the price for me is ok. Because I had to go in the next district and the film bring back the same evening or I pay the fee for 2 days.
If you have the video store in reach on foot of course that is something else again, but meet with me not so for me not relevant!
The connection with my wireless (16000er connection) is very good so far there have been in the movie playback no stuttering or the like.
Playback is only a few seconds after you start and when you have to leave the movie again, you can choose whether you want to start again from the beginning or because carries on where you left off.
My Conclusion:
For me this is definitely good!
Who like me the above points are important and if you surf the net or similar things like does not need, which I can really recommend the Apple TV box (3rd generation)!
PS:
Please always remember, this is all my opinion, I would like to no discussion about Apple or the lending rates, or anything take off.
All my feelings and my views!
I hope I can help a potential buyer with my review when deciding for or against the course AppleTV box.
Thanks for reading, comments and / or questions are welcome!
