Is the new Apple TV better than Squeezebox?


I have a Squeezebox connected to my DAC then to my preamp. I'm using it to stream all of my iTunes content. What would be the advantage if I use the new Apple TV instead of the Squeezebox? Not interested about streaming video, just 2 channel music.

Horseface, did you manage to try the Mac Mini? If you have, is it better than the Transporter/Duet in terms of sound quality? I am in the midst of deciding between a Squeezebox Touch and Mac Mini to get into computer audio playing iTunes after doing some research here.

From what I was told the Apple TV is not a very good product when compared to the Squeezebox and Mac Mini due to high levels of jitter, and for the fact that it streams wireless music from various sources(wireless degrades sound quality although is extremely convenient).
