Is it okay to leave my Apple TV on all the time?

I already ordered the new Apple TV but this question has been on my mind ever since I bought the original Apple TV. Every time I finish using my Apple TV I disconnect my it from a power source. The reason I do this is because it gets so hot that when I touch it I literally get my fingers burnt. Is it okay to leave it on all the time? I've heard from some people it is but I just wanted suggestions from fellow geeks.
