A new update for the Apple Tv 5.3 released yesterday together a press release with the good figures obtained by Apple, in this case, on their audiovisual content that they show off with this title: ITunes users already buy more than 800.000 episodes of TV series and more than 350.000 movies a day.
The update available for Apple TV that can be performed on both the second generation and the third generation, up to 5 new channels are added to your list. In this update no bug or problem is corrected that may have the device so if you have the Apple TV 2 with the corresponding jailbreak, it is best not to approach this new version 5.3 released by the Cupertino.
On the other hand, if you have an Apple TV 3 and you want to update, you can do it without problems and you will find two of these five as a novelty on your device, which are: Qello and Crunchyroll, the other channels added in the update are: WatchESPN, Sky News and HBO Go, but these are only available in the United States and other countries.
The new Qello channel offers us the option of using it for 7 days for free and in it we will find an immense library of documentaries, concerts and music, and it also has a totally free application for iOS in the iTunes store.
And Crunchyroll, which also has its free application in the iTunes store for iOS devices and we will find Japanese anime series and Asian content that once released in Japan, the next day we will be able to see them at home with Spanish subtitles.
Let's hope that this type of channel with good content will enter the market of our country, which is still quite weak on this type of content and its distribution.

I'm waiting for the new Apple TV and the new iPad Mini to be announced to enrich my Apple ecosystem (iPod, iPhone, iMac) and my 2006 Samsung TV, which is not at all “Smart”. That's where the shots go, hehe.
I do have the Apple TV 3 and the truth is that I use it quite a bit, especially to perform AirPlay and it's great!
and how do you turn off the imac monitor when you watch a movie through airplay
