Interesting take on the possibility of Apple producing a set-top box.

I don't listen to anyone who calls it a MAC.

That would be sweet. I would settle for an Apple box connected to my TV/HT that I could purchase music on the iTunes store and then select my Apple set top box as the recipient for downloads.

The Apple Set Top will happen...its just a matter of time.

Well, I hope it happens soon because if it doesn't there may be three or more competing services in the next year or so. Apple got in early on the mp3 player phenomenon, so I hope they get in early on this.

With iTunes already in place with a huge user base, I think that Apple's entry into more extensive video offerings will be a snap. My question is whether they will want to go into the free w/ commercials programs. Heck, I'd watch the programs I want with commercials. We're already used to that, so what's the big deal. I do hesitate to pay $2 for an episode of a TV show though. I just want to see it, I don't want to keep it. If I pay for it, I hate to throw it away.
