Any of you use an external drive of music and picture files with the new Apple tv?

No.

Anyone want to be able to download purchased content to the hard drive? I had a client ask me this the other day, saying they used to be able to do it with their old Apple TV. And I informed them that it would have to be really old for that to have even been possible....gen 1 anybody?

Yes, this client has the Apple TV with the hard drive built-in. Thanks for confirming this.

A hard drive that's 64 gig?

Somewhere I have a portable computer* that has a 10 mB hard drive. So there.

A good answer is easier with a clear question giving the make and model of everything.

I believe it is used for the apps, and probably the fancy screensaver graphics. No option that I could find to download content to the Apple TV from the store.
