Can you transfer movies off of apple tv?

[SolarCanoe]

I'm considering purchasing an Apple TV but i want to know if I can put all my movies on it and then delete them off my Mac to save space. And if I do, then can I transfer them back from the apple tv to my mac when i want to either sync them to my ipod or burn them? All my movies are ripped with handbrake so they have no copy protection.
