Late Prediction for MacWorld

I am going to predict that a new Apple TV is what is going at least one of the things that Steve Jobs announces. An Apple TV that adds the "Buy Now" and "Rent Now" options. Also, add either a optional and internal Blu-Ray drive for the Apple TV. Why do I think they will add Blu-ray? Well, I was just thinking about all of the companies that have announced that they will no longer be producing HD DVD videos and start producing Blu-ray instead. What I think happened is when Jobs went into discussions with the movie houses about renting video content over the web, he mentioned that they would be adding a Blu-ray drive to the Apple TV and they saw a great opportunity to get on the Apple money band wagon. And after hearing it, they decided that HD DVD is dead if Apple is behind Blu-ray.
