Apple's Hobby the Apple TV got it's 3.0 software update. And there are some new features.
The first thing that one notices is that the home screen is much more Apple. Beautifully designed, but it may cause a little clipping at the edges of your screen especially if you like me are using an RGB converter, for an older Tube TVand not an LCD/Plasma/FST.
A picture of the Apple TV looms over the different categories, and when you move over each category the content of you Apple TV gets coverflow style displayed.
The new function is under the new category "Internet" and it's one of my favorite functions of iTunes,
Internet Radio.
This means that all your favorite Radio stations such as my personal favorite Indie 103, can be utilised direct from the Apple TV so there is no need anymore to have to switch your computer on. And if you use the HDMI plug and not the RGB Audio plug. Then you can plug it directly into your stereo, or surround sound set up.
All in all it's a excellent update and worth doing, and hopefully the next update will sort my Screen clipping problem. The other reason that the update has taken place is that the new Album extra and in the US available Film extra's can be viewed. To this point iTunes has also been updated to 9.0.2
