Apple TV gets price cut

September 15th, 2009 by Ty Pendlebury

While the net was abuzz last week in a flurry of iPod-related limb hurling, nothing much was said about the Apple TV. This is strange considering that last night the 160GB version got a price decrease to AU$329 (from AU$449), and the 40GB model was dropped altogether. It must have slipped Apple's mind.

Apple TV, like the iPod Classic, now comes in only one flavour: 160GB.

The Apple TV has been on the market for almost three years, kinda limping along despite a lack of ongoing fanfare, but has seen some improvements since we looked at it in 2007. Back then it was only 30GB and pretty well locked-down with a lack of downloadable content available.

Of course, the Apple TV is still hindered by the lack of DivX and XviD support, but at least you can now purchase movies and TV shows in HD with 5.1 surround sound.
