Apple TV works well in Europe
Well this is true, if you don't have a US iTunes account.
Let's approach a purely theoretical argument here, not a recommendation for anyone to do.
Hypothetically, you could have a US iTunes account, just by creating a new itunes account with any US address. You will need a US credit card OR an itunes gift card (from the US) or a friend from the US who will give/trade you itunes credits.
Then you would need a way to change your DNS settings on your router so it looks like you are coming from the US, like Unblock-us (www.[B]unblock[/B]-us.com/).
While this is all somewhat complicated, hypothetically you would be able to enjoy Apple TV or Roku from Europe or Asia, although it violates the terms of usage and agreements with Netflix, HBO, etc.

Sadly, as with AppleTv it's only viable in the US, anywhere else not so much.
