Yep, anything that iTunes can see in the library (not apps or books obviously) will stream to the Apple TV. Ready for the crappy part? You need an iTunes account to enable Home Sharing. Pretty odd that you have to register with Apple to share your non Apple purchased media.
You can get around that by using AirPlay to push the content from your Mac or iOS device instead of pulling the content via Home Sharing. Not a perfect solution, but workable depending on the configuration. The old Apple TV can pull content via the normal ITunes shared library feature, not sure why Apple removed this from the new Apple TV.
