YouTube coming to Apple TV
Cory Bergman May 30th, 2007
Beginning in a couple weeks, you’ll be able to browse, search and watch YouTube video on your TV set through Apple TV. “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,” said Steve Jobs, Apple’s CEO. Sweet. Also, Apple said it will offer a build-to-order Apple TV unit with a 160GB hard drive — four times the capacity of the current model.

The video will look great on your four-inch TV.

Jobs apparently forgot that youtube works splendidly on the wii. But, hey, anything to make the AppleTV suck less cant hurt.

I have a TV card in a PC that I have attached to a 27 inch SDTV. I use the PC as a DVR. Using SageTV, I regularly watch YouTube and Google Video. It looks pretty good.
