You can still find an Apple TV 2 used models on Amazon, eBay or even Craigslist. Since the Apple TV 3 doesn’t have jailbreak capabilities, used Apple TV and Apple TV 2 prices are much more expensive than the Apple TV 3 because of the jailbreak feature. You can still jailbreak the first generation Apple TV, but the newest Apple TV 3 rd generation can’t be unlocked at this time. This jailbreak method only works for the second generation Apple TV.

Support for iOS 4 - 10 has been dropped for now - This may return in the future depending on demand. I guess it doesn’t really matter where the file is because I was thinking I could take the IPSW and transfer that to a new comp so I wouldn’t have to download it again, but since the file somehow latches onto the system files and doesn’t boot unless you create the file on that new comp, it doesn’t really matter where the file is saved. This very rarely happens but at least the option is there. Keep track of which “sp” goes with which ATV though… they are ATV specific. Also, the one with the “sp” will be overwritten unless you rename it first. *note: if you have a second ATV to jailbreak, keeping the one w/o the “sp” will save you from downloading it again. Just put your ATV in DFU mode, go into iTunes and right click the “restore” button, select that file and iTunes will re-jalibreak it to clean 5.3. The one with the “sp” is usefull if you ever want to jailbreak that particular ATV again. Seas0nPass is available for free, and is open source. Also included is a simple tethered boot option which aids in using newer AppleTV firmwares when an un-tethered jailbreak is not yet available. No need to keep the one w/o the “sp”, it can be downloaded again anytime. Seas0nPass allows you to easily create custom AppleTV IPSW files and restore them in iTunes (similar to the existing Pwnage Tool app). Is it enough to keep the SP-File for the future - or is it better to keep the File without SP - or both? The one w/o the “SP” is the file Apple puts on your ATV during normal update. “SP” stands for Seasonpass, it’s the file that gets put on the ATV to jailbreak it.
