Roku 2 and Apple TV Compared

CNET.com has a good article comparing the two top streaming-media devices, the Roku 2 and the Apple TV.  I have personally used both devices, and own the Apple TV for personal use.  I can honestly say that both devices are nicely designed.  The Apple TV is nice for people living within the Apple ecosystem, and it also offers streaming via iTunes.  The Roku 2 offers more content options than the Apple TV but the interface of the Apple TV is slightly nicer.  Also, the Roku 2 does not offer a native way to streaming content.

Both streaming boxes are nice units, the one you get is dependent on what features you want most.  Visit CNET.com's review here for the results.

Do you have one of these, what are your thoughts?
