    AppleTV 3 jailbreak - worth it?

    I am sick of watching TV, at least here in Italy it's awful, we gotta pay 90 euros per year if we own a TV screen and this to watch adverts or the news, I rely on an ATV4 to watch either Prime, stuff stored on a NAS via Infuse or YouTube. The place where I sleep has no antenna plugs and a small...

    Apple TV3 vs .avi .mkv

    I know that ATV3 can't play both .avi and .mkv files which bothers me big time cos I have a nas where I store movies and I can't play any of the two on my Sony TV whilst my son's TV, a Panasonic, can play them natively.
