I am not an Apple guy but AppleTV is the best "out of the box" streaming device on the market and it's not even close. Really the only thing I have against it is that Apple changed IP control to require HomeKit.

For us nerds, an HTPC is hard to beat....but for everyone else, I recommend an AppleTV.
