Bu I've bought into Amazon, I have a library there I really don't want to buy again. I also like when you buy a blu ray they sometimes throw in a free instant video rental.
Ability to act as an AT&T Uverse receiver would be nice. No need to pay rent on it each month.
EWTN and BYU would be nice to have on the
TV. They don't cost anything to stream and are available on other platforms.
INSP, would also be nice, even at a small cost.
Local Channels, what happened to the days when you could get these for free?

You will never see Amazon on Apple TV... unless they allow something similar to what Microsoft does on the Xbox... can't purchase/rent directly, but can access Amazon Prime videos and anything bought/rented from Amazon's website. I'd be perfectly fine with that implementation.
Anyway... top 3 channels/apps I guess:
Plex
Amazon
Verizon FiOS (And other providers... Comcast, etc)

In order of preference for me:
1) Amazon VOD
2) Discovery
3) NFL, pay per game
I don't subscribe to cable, so this "sign in with your cable account" stuff doesn't do me any good. I certainly like free programming, but I'm willing to pay for channels or shows/sporting events that I want to watch. I hope that we have more options in the future.

I have DirecTV and use Blurays.
But I am also an Amazon Prime member and haven't used the included streaming service.
I've read I could mirror it from my Mac Mini to ATV2.
Anyone have any suggestions? I guess I'll have to get the PS4

Apple won't do Playboy under any circumstances.

You should be able to use AirPlay from any Mac (running ML or later, IIRC) to an ATV3. I don't think that's supported in ATV2.

HGTV (for the Wife)
TBS (the Wife's "Fall asleep - boring sitcom TV:
