Several things make the Play@TV unsuitable for the discriminating user. It doesn't play certain media formats such as QuickTime, Ogg-Vorbis and PNG pictures. The wireless streaming works, but is very slow. And the menu system in the Media Organizer and Media Server could have been more polished, as labeling the Play, Stop and Pause buttons with A, B and C is not very intuitive.
