Blogs Boxee - the outsider bringing media centres to the mainstream?

I installed boxee on my apple tv a while back and though it looked nice and worked rather ok, but it was easier for me to steam content through my 360.

But i had a look last week on the boxee internet channels and to my suprise i noticed BBC iPlayer, i cant recieve any anologue/digital singals in my bedroom which makes iPlayer on boxee great for me.

I've watched atleast 2 programmes a night on my Apple TV since i discovered the iPlayer and i think i will be using it more regualry from now on.

 

I love Boxee, I use it to stream TV/Film from my main rig downstairs to my TV.

The interface is lurvely and my very-non-techy gf can use it without bugging me, which is a bonus

 

This does sound interesting, but XBMC has already won my heart a long time ago.

 

We've installed it on our AppleTV, the problem is, it just doesn't have the horsepower to play any files bigger than 720, which makes it all a bit useless...
