[QUOTE="Zoolook, post: 1126862, member: 21101"] I jailbroke my old ATV... but it was a pain. It was like having a 1 year old computer... er, probably because the specs are pretty much in line with a 10 year old computer. Anyway, the new ATV when jailbroken, should be able to run most apps from the App store, and many other things, meaning Hulu Plus should work on it and so should CineXPlayer and VLC. For me, that's the glaring omission right now... app store. The problem is that content providers have conveniently tied up all content into different agreements, depending on what the streaming device is. E.g. streaming to a phone has one agreement, a computer another, a TV enabled device another still. All of this is ludicrous of course, because you can plug a computer into almost any screen... and you also can with a Jailbroken iOS device. [/QUOTE]
