Get YouTube into your living rooms with Apple TV

Thousands of the most current and popular YouTube videos will be available on Apple TV from mid-June.

The Internet’s most popular originally created content from YouTube will reach your living rooms with Apple TV beginning mid-June.
Apple TV will wirelessly stream videos directly from YouTube and play them on a user's widescreen TV.

"This is the first time users can easily browse, find and watch YouTube videos right from their living room couch, and it's really, really fun," said Steve Jobs, Apple's CEO.
Thousands of the most current and popular YouTube videos will be available on Apple TV at launch, with YouTube adding thousands more each week until the full YouTube catalog is available this fall.

Apple TV seamlessly integrates with iTunes to wirelessly play a user's favorite content from a PC or Mac on their widescreen TV, including movies, TV shows, music, photos and podcasts.

Apple also announced that it is offering a new Apple TV build-to-order option with a 160GB hard drive. The new larger hard drive offers four times the storage for up to 200 hours of video, 36,000 songs, 25,000 photos or a combination of each.
