Hi Pablo, No, you can't play videos on other sites, only YouTube and stuff you buy or rent from the iTunes Store like movies or TV shows. You can also play content which is in iTunes on your computer but as you already found out, this has to be in a format which is supported by iTunes.
The Apple TV is wonderfully accessible and is slowly getting more content, but it's not a full-fletched set top box or generic media player. It's very much tied into Apple's eco system and of course also serves as an Airplay device. By this I mean you can airplay stuff from your iPhone to your TV via the Apple TV which includes the ability to mirror your iPhone display so even if an app has no built-in Airplay, you can still use the Apple TV if you mirror you riPhone display. It is also a $99 device which is rather inexpensive for Apple and even though I don't use it all that often, when I do want it, it's totally worth the investment.

Now, another question. All of you said that you can play youtube videos on your TVs, using your apple TV. What about videos that are on another web sites, like flash videos? As you know, some web sites store some videios that we can see in our iPhones, or iPads. those videos can be played with the apple tv? in this case, how we can access to those URLs? It has a web address bar where we can type the URL of a video?
