Hello all,
We don't have internet or a home computer at our house. We've been using a WD TV Live attached to a 3TB hard drive to watch movies (I've converted out entire DVD collection to .mp4 files). However, it's time to replace the WD TV Live. I'd love to get an apple TV... the interface looks pretty slick and being able to hook it up to our iphones/ipad sounds pretty cool. However, am I correct in assuming that without a home network it would be useless? If we just want to watch content that we've converted and put on our hard drive, would this be the correct unit for us? I think not, but thought I would check with much more knowledgeable people! Thanks.
