Hi,

Can you have 2 or 3 or 4 accounts on a single Mac each with their own iTunes account, leave all 4 accounts open running iTunes and then be able to access the various libraries on multiple Apple TV2's via homesharing?

If so, is this the recommended way and does it work flawlessly?

At the minute I am using 2 old windows PC's for 2 iTunes accounts which are left on permanently, but I would like to buy one of the new Mac Mini's if it could do the job perfectly.

Is anybody doing this?

Thanks.
 
Yes, this works flawlessly. I'm doing it now with a 2010 Mac Mini. Have 3 accounts logged into and they all show up on the ATV2 simultaneously without actually having to switch to each account. Home sharing is really cool. :)
