The 1280 by 720 pixel resolution, also known as 720P, is one of several high-definition video formats supported by current televisions. Using the H.264 video compression codec, Apple TV supports 720P playback at 24 frames per second - the frame rate used by movies, not TV shows.
The implication is that Apple will soon be in the business of selling high-definition movies and TV shows, or at least its version of high definition.
