I am sure there are more considerations to ponder in making your decision, but if you get lost or confused just ask yourself, “What do I want to do with this thing?” Once you know the use of the product, you may have a clearer idea of what to chose.

Well, what should you get?

I believe Apple TV does not play non DRM music and video, which makes it a bad bad choice.

that was poorly written! My bad.
