The Apple TV device doesn't play music?
If it does, it's competition.

I think it's a fine line, Peter. The review was for an audio only device. I don't think there is any validity or reasoning to compare it to a "do it all" video and audio device and say it is competition. Two different markets are in play. Aside from that, I think it was a meaningless review.

I agree with that, but I'm afraid an Apple branded box that does video
as well as audio would take customers away from SD, if only because it
probably will play DRM'ed music. The review was shallow, even more
than usual.
