Apple v Netflix II

Think Secret has reported that Apple will be offering movie rentals. I predicted this back in October, but i'm wondering how Apple will actually deliver these movies. I know I don't want to watch a movie on my computer, but how will they get onto my TV? Unless I hack into my cable box, I'm thinking the answer will lay in a new version of the Mac Mini that will hook up to your TV and wirelessly transfer movies from your desktop. That seems like the easiest path, but how much will it cost the consumer-- $600 on top of the movie cost and popcorn? Netflix has been hard at work with Tivo developing a box to deliver their movies digitally, and that's a big existing audience and a mechanism people are comfortable with. The Mini is going to have to get a lot slicker to win people over.
