Apple TV’s popularity and sales skyrocketed ever since its redesigned version was launched earlier this year in September. So since that initial launch, it has been around for three months, and later this week, the Apple TV is all set to hit the 1 million mark in sales worldwide.

Apple had seriously left everyone in awe when it released the latest version of the Apple TV, as it not only was lighter, smaller and more energy efficient, it also featured a host of other functions such as content streaming, support for Netflix, YouTube, Flickr and MobileMe and really affordable rental pricing for TV shows, best of all, Apple TV came with a price tag of just  $99.99.

Things are really looking good for Apple in terms of the Apple TV considering the fact that 1 million units have been sold in just three months, the company also claims that that iTunes users are now renting and purchasing more than 400,000 TV episodes and more than 150,000 movies per day via the Apple TV.

So it seems like Apple has begun to leave its impression in the digital TV arena looking at how good the situation has been for it since the very start, one solid competitor to it, was the much hyped Google TV which has had faced channel blockages and product release delays, in that case, it would be right to assume that Apple TV is surely going to dominate the market.
