Hi Scott,

If you had a 1st Generation Apple TV with the built-in HD, this would work as 
once the Apple TV is synced, you wouldn't need to have the iTunes Library 
actually active.  Now, of course, they're hard to find now and you need sighted 
assistance to set them up, but after that, you'd be golden.  I was also 
thinking about iTunes Match on the 2nd Gen Apple TV, you'd be able to use a 
matched Library in that situation except, at the moment, it only applies to 
iTunes music files, not movie and TV shows.  You might also have volume 
restrictions from your ISP that could interfere with this idea as well.

Not helping much, am I?

Hmmm, you could stoop to putting Windows on your Mac as well so that you could 
run Fusion or Parallels, thus having two Libraries running simultaneously from 
the same machine.  I don't particularly care for Windows though, even though I 
have to use it at work sometimes.

I'll think some more and let you know if I come up with anything.

Later...
