    Default Apple Tv

    Just heard about the apple tv with jailbreak, is it worth the investment? Does it use lot of bandwidth on your internet? Seems interesting alternative to satellite, however not sure just found out about and looking for more knowledge. Would you be able to pick up UFC events? maybe someone provide some insight, as well as difficulty level of setting up third party software?

    atv does like the bandwidth, but has by far the best quality movie streaming via xbmc and icefilms that I have ever seen, ufcs can be viewed the following day, all movies that are on ppv are viewable, there are some great step by step how to videos on utube, start off with seas0npass install via micro usb cord(same as blackberry usb cord)then install nitotv, through nitotv app install xbmc and then get the icefilms repo (free netflix basically) not as great as it was when they were using megaupload but is slowly coming back with rapidshare, check out other repos also ie: canada on demand and cable tv. also get a torrent of atv black which adds an internet browser app. easy to setup since now there is an untethered version.

    thanks daryl1964 for the info. when you say it likes the bandwidth can you tell an example of it's usage? I am really concerned about going over and being charged, someon told me it uses less than downloading direct to computer?

    Most streams are 720p ,so I think roughly about 1GB per 2 hour movie.

    so the apple TV can use up a lot of bandwidth. I thought this unit may use less because of it's purpose. little concerned now using this because I am using a open wifi at times and I don't want to use up that bandwidth.
