I'm toying with the idea of replacing my ATV with the new Mac Mini and using it for all my media in the lounge.
Can anyone give me some info as to how good it is at this job?
I've currently got a 27" iMac in the home office with all my movies, music and photo's on an external HD. I have got the ATV to store all my music and photo's locally so I can listen and view without the iMac being turned on and just have the 10 most recent unwatched films stored on the ATV.
If I was to bin the ATV and replace with the Mini how does the music sharing work? Will it copy all of my music library and store it locally as my ATV does? The same with the pics?
Can you rent movies etc the same as the ATV using Front Row or does it have to be done through iTunes?
Any help appreciated as always lads
