That article completely misses the point and focus Apple has for the :apple:TV.
I agree that Apple's focus is too narrow and it's the consumer that suffers for it. But the fact is they consider it nothing more than a portal to their service. They consider use of their products in ways that don't benefit Apple further to be detrimental to their bottom line. Even if they are actually limiting their sales in the end. End of story. It's the company culture. Thanks Mr. Jobs.
