I don't really understand all of this. Will the Apple TV play my Xvid files? I have lots of Xvid tvshows that I've figured out how to add to iTunes, and would like to know if the Apple TV will be able to play/stream these as easily as iTunes purchased shows.

I don't think so, since iTunes does not accept Divx/Xvid/AVI Movies, but this is iTunes 7.0.2 maybe 7.1 but I doubt it since Apple wants a captive Market.

Just hope there will be a HD Movies on iTunes Store.
