It&#8217;s exactly the easy-to-use, all-in-one device that the market has been hungry for.  The Apple TV, not so much.  I think between <a href=http:\/\/www.tivo.com\/>Tivo<\/a>, DVR, <a href=http:\/\/www.netflix.com\/>Netflix<\/a>, Video On Demand, and people just generally being busier than they used to be, the market for more video content is over-saturated.  iTunes videos probably sell specifically because they can play on portable computers and iPods, not because people can&#8217;t find anything to watch on their televisions.
