Neither does requiring Home Sharing to easily media content over the LAN to the Apple TV 2 (yes AirPlay is alright, but not for media center streaming requirements, you would need an iOS device and Apple Remote software to make that solution function properly). That's right, the Apple TV 2 requires an Apple ID in order to stream media from iTunes, even if none of the media was purchased on the iTunes Store. Very weird.
