Okay, I'm starting over here. I just removed a huge rant because you know how I feel about Apple sometimes. I was ranting about what Apple has done to the Apple TV and how it's basically making things MORE difficult for my mom. Ugh.

But anyway, please advise me:

1- is it only possible to get photos on the Apple TV through Photo Stream?
2- can you only use Photo Stream via iCloud?
3- is it only possible to manage Photo Stream via iPhoto?

Thanks.
