[QUOTE="AdmundfortGeographer, post: 5713033, member: 4682"] Nope. Only media living in an iTunes library on a running PC, or iTunes content streaming from an internet connection. I've been praying for an update that lets an iTunes library live in a network share. Maybe someday. Just speculation, but it feels like Apple is moving more towards a model where all your content lives in the cloud and the Apple TV would just pull from that. Just login with your cloud credentials on any Apple device and *boom* you have access to it all no matter where you are, at an Apple TV or at any iOS device or computer with iTunes. No need to a personal storage server. Gives me the willies not having the stuff on my own equipment, I'm controlling that way, but I also like knowing that my stuff isn't at the whims of distractive disasters or thefts. Bringing it back to Siri, I can see a future A5-powered Apple TV with a mic in the remote powered by Siri. Siri needs an always on internet connection to access the servers that interpret the natural language, and an AppleTV has that. Mmmm. [/QUOTE]
