If you have a high-definition television, you should be watching 
high-definition movies.

The newly updated Apple TV set-top box makes this easy. The slim 
Internet device, which connects to an HDTV, serves up dozens of 
high-definition rentals and hundreds of standard-definition versions, 
with more titles on the way from all the major movie studios.

And it does so directly, without a computer as an awkward 
intermediary. This was the major sticking point with the original 
Apple TV, which needed to be fed most of its content from a Macintosh 
or Windows PC.

Though HD-rental selection on the Apple TV remains a bit sparse (see

and services), I adore the Apple TV for reasons that go beyond movies.
