Yeah, I agree. Since I started using a Sony PSP, I've been convinced that a lot of the gaming world will eventually lean towards mobility, and the "staionary" consoles will become smaller, and more portable, which a desktop computer is not, and most likely will never truly be.
This is a good point. I think that depending on what you want to watch, YouTube could be a viable source of media for the iTV, but the fact that it's uploaded by private individuals, and most of it is horribly low-quality could be the one thing that stops this idea dead in it's tracks.
However, the same sort of problem could apply to private media using iTunes, the only difference being that iTunes would be more convenient then YouTube, as far as consecutive clips goes.
That seems like the trend so far. I'm not so sure that I see Apple getting into making their own games, but I do see popular games in the future being release not only on PCs, but on Macs as well, because of the growing number of mac users. It's now finally profitable to develop game for Macs.
