The part that would make an Apple TV experience compelling is all software and service. There is no point to stick this inside a £3000 screen when they probably wont want to be supporting that hardware 8 years down the line seen as people don't buy TVs every 2-4 years.
The hardware required is absolutely commodity level shit, it's just a little bit of storage, network access and a H264 decoder. Otherwise it's all just software. There is absolutely no point sticking and expensive screen and chassis to this hardware unless people will pay the premium for one on a regular basis.
