Depending on the need of the user, APPLE TV can function as either a home theatre-connected iPod device or a digital media receiver.
But still, how could we watch video content from the Internet without tangling in wires? We can download a movie into a computer to download it later, into the iPod. But to transfer it on a TV monitor we definitely need a 'box' that could make the transfer. But how could that box communicate with the pc? Because we don’t want to pull cables around the house, we will use a wireless network in order to transfer content from our computer into the 'box', then from 'box' into television. Steve Jobs revealed that simple message to that question, and what major companies have tried for years to create is ': a combined device - a convergence between television and computer. Apple TV plays online multimedia content direct on TV. Running on a wireless connection type, and according to the manufacturer, it offers equivalent image quality standards, assured by a DVD player.
