Currently have installed 48 Apple TV's throughout the school i work in, as the services required multicasting you need to make sure IGMP is on and we have restricted multicasting to a specific "iOS" device network.
All Apple TV's and Staff iPads are on the same vLan even though the Apple TV's are physically connected and the iPads are wireless, we have contained the Multicase traffic within this vLan for these devices to ensure they dont interfere with the other wireless networks and LAN traffic.
As far as i can tell you can have as many as you want, all our iOS devices happily show every device in every room without issue and works fine under quite a lot of load, staff even stream video to them and we never have an issue.
(might be worth adding we have a very good wireless and network infrastructure)
