Forget Apple TV, Stream to Your Xbox or PS3:
If you’ve already got an Xbox 360 or PS3 (who doesn’t?) there’s no
reason to bother with another media streamer, even if you’re ditching
Windows. The programs Connect 360 and Rivet will stream music, movies and photos from your Mac to your Xbox for $20. For the PS3, there’s MediaLink,
from the guys who make Connect 360, which does pretty much the same
deal, but with slightly better integration with iTunes and iPhoto. The P2P app Vuze—which
is free—also streams videos to Xbox 360 and PS3 from any OS it
runs on, but obviously it’s a little less feature-rich.
