An iTunes ready TV?  Yep, no brainer, I'm buying one.

You go right ahead, I'm not buying one.

"Broadcasters are terrified"

Yeah, right.

This looks like another Apple bomb (like Apple TV).

I leave the rest of you to buy content and devices from this profit oriented monster. Frankly, I'm not subsidizing Foxconn suicides.

Apple would probably want to control the content then.

Exactly! Control AND generate a revenue stream.
No f*ing way.

If Apple were to follow the Commodore example they would still be pushing the AppleII as a viable product... ;)

If I remember correctly, Woz wanted to do just that.
