this 2nd generation Apple TV only has the following that still works: iTunes, Netflix, Radio, and downloading movies from apple. The set up is even more strange because you have to sign in with your iCloud account, then the Apple TV denies you, but you get a 2 factor code. After that, sign in with your iCloud account again, but this time type in your password AND the 2 factor code at the end of the password. then the Apple TV will have you signed in to access your music and movies.

This is my second Apple TV2 and when I received it, it was not entirely set up. Had I not known what to expect, and what it should look and work like, it would have been useless to me. In the end I was able to complete the set-up and the necessary downloads and it works for the most part. It shuts down and restarts itself randomly; sometimes during a search, sometimes during a show. But it works and I use it all the time.

I bought AppleTV primarily to stream Netflix and to access the music, photo and video libraries housed on my Apple G5. It's shockingly easy to set up get running on Apple TV — it's as simple as HDMI cable and optical into flat screen tv, and go. I particularly enjoy the iTunes AirPlay feature that allows me to stream music to multiple rooms, and with iPhone's Remote app I can control the system from anywhere in the house. AppleTV also has a screen saver feature so while the music is streaming, our photo library plays in slide show mode on the television screen. I also set up a YouTube channel online and filled it with old super hero cartoons that my kids and I can now watch on the big screen. It's still somewhat limited in terms of the programs available and it hasn't yet replaced Comcast cable for us, but I sense that this is the next step in true content on demand.Read full review
As far as I can see you'd only buy an ATV2 to jailbreak it and run XBMC etc. (And you don't want to risk Android geek hell with the various dedicated boxes that are popping up). Otherwise you wouldn't pay more than an ATV3 costs to get this older device with less iOS functionality. My ATV2 came with 4.3 (84F55/2557) on it, which Seasonpass seamlessly JB/upgraded to 5.0.2 which has airplay and the new menus. After a reboot I could SSH (Putty) onto it and install XBMC, (be patient & accurate typing the linux command lines) which in no time had me using Amazon Prime and watching ripped DVDs off our Synology NAS. (Which is where I came in, after my 18 mth old Seagate GoFlex up & died). So, the ATV2 does what you're really getting it for, does it well, and I found XBMC to be way more usable than WD TV Live, Boxee or a Roku 2 XS. Tip: Try XBMC beforehand by installing it on your PC, it works exactly the same and you can get the hang of it with a keyboard & mouse instead of a remote. Tip 2: Most ATV2s on ebay come without a remote, you just go get/order a new one from Apple, $20.Read full review
