In addition to HD movie rentals and purchases, HD TV shows, music and podcasts, users also get Genius playlists and Internet radio through their home theatre.
The new interface gives instant access to your favorite content, according to Apple. TV shows, music, podcasts, photos and YouTube, are accessible directly from the new main menu.
Apple TV 3.0 is free for all existing users. For new users, a 160GB Apple TV costs $229.
