Basically I want one service that I can watch new release movies, older & "classic" movies as well as new TV shows as they are aired. I have what I need now with Satellite and Redbox, but I hate stopping at Redboxs and my satellite bill is rediculous.

Hulu Plus still shows coming soon for Wii.
Well, you will get one device to do all of this for you...it's just a matter of subscriptions after that. With internet TV you are awarded the ability to forgo those subscriptions if you do internet searches for what you are looking for. For example, the you tube links you posted a couple days ago of old zombie movies. Sure they would probably be viewed better on Netflix (if they had them), but you found it and you watched it....

As for AppleTV, it doesn't show that it is supported for Hulu yet...my honest opinion would be GTV or Roku (Roku has Hulu Plus) because of the streaming abilities. If you want to pay for subscriptions then Roku is the winner...if you want the net at your fingertips (and most subscriptions) then GTV is the winner.

Best Buy will certainly know more than I though Not sure if they carry the Roku though.

Best of luck
