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.

Does it need to do 24/96 or better? ;)

For 16/44 content, it sounds excellent. The interface is wonderful and it syncs with iTunes without any additional software. The iOS Remote app is extremely cool, and the AirPlay feature that is coming with iOS 4.2 should be impressive.

It's definitely different than the Squeezebox, and a good deal ($99) if you use iTunes a lot.
