I love the idea of the Apple TV. I love the concept of having all your TV shows and movies consolidated in one place - one media server. The iTunes Store has Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Angel, and even Hercules and Xena. This, in my opinion, is the next step in media. I would replace my DVD collection with iTunes media, and stream them all to Apple TVs around the house. Want to show off a movie or show an episode in a TV show? Start up the TV and hit the remote for Apple TV, and you have a ready list of all your media right in front of you. This is Apple's vision, and I love it.
But I have not bought one piece of media off the iTunes store yet. And I will not buy the Apple TV. Why?
Apple have not yet implemented closed captioning or subtitles in any of their visual media. Until they do, none of my money will go into their iPod+iTunes cashcow.
I am wondering if anyone hears anything or has any idea of when Apple, if they do, will start including closed captioning/subtitles in their media?
