I'd like to see subscriptions added to Apple TV, but there are a lot of other things I'd like to see added first:

Sounds just like a DVR to me! And yet, we will still have some people telling us that consumers are too dumb or too lazy to switch, so alternatives like Apple TV “don't matter” in reassessing the need for outdated regulations based on the world of media scarcity of the 1980s.

The current AppleTV is a 160 GB storage device. Subscribe to your favorite shows and let them trickle download in the middle of the night – bypassing broadband bottlenecks. This is an advantage of the current AppleTV device over the Netflix device which is streaming only.

The only things that would hold Apple back would be lack of content and the speed of a user's broadband connection. If they can get each participating studio to address the former, I think a $30/month plan with advertising would be a hit if it came with access to the entire back catalog, on demand of the participating studios (which is a feature that Apple could offer, but cable cannot).
