How about making the ATV picture quality awesome instead of adequate?
With h.265, there's a chance to make iTunes 1080p content true Blu-Ray quality, if not better, instead of the over-compressed near-beer that it is now, which is good enough for most, but certainly not fantastic. "Good enough" is what Android is aiming for and succeeding. Google Play is a joke right now, but it might not be in five years.
Apple needs to aim for nothing less than becoming the premier supplier of videophile-quality film and TV content and taking the lead in making the home theater experience completely seamless and disc-free, before they start monkeying around with an iTV, especially given Tim Cook's feelings about OLED.
