The Apple TV is a streaming only device and is marketed as such. The storage on the current models is only for apps. All set top boxes work in the same fashion. It also requires internet to properly function, which is designated on the box and product page. If someone wants to take it elsewhere they are free to load content onto their laptop, iPhone, iPad and use airplay to stream to ATV.
