Apple has announced that YouTube will be compatible with Apple TV, starting from mid-June. Well, almost. Although the full catalogue won't be available until the autumn, once that happens you'll be able to stream videos through the Apple TV box, browse YouTube with your Apple Remote and access your account.
The obligatory Steve Jobs quote: “This is the first time users can easily browse, find and watch YouTube videos right from their living room couch, and it’s really, really fun. YouTube is a worldwide sensation, and Apple TV is bringing it directly from the Internet onto the widescreen TV in your living room.”
There are hardware enhancements, too.
Apple has also announced it is offering a build-to-order option machine with a 160GB hard drive, which can store up to 200 hours of video, 36,000 songs, 25,000 photos or a combination of each. You can buy Apple TV for £199, with the 160GB model arriving on 1st June for £269.
