I admit while I have been tempted by the Roku Box, I haven’t actually watched much of anything on a TV in quite a while. This will change as I am going to take the plunge with Boxee, the open-source solution from NYC that allows you to hook up a Mac or Linux computer to your TV (but in a user-friendly way) to watch online video including Netflix Watch Instantly and DVDs, photos, etc. It also works with the Apple TV box. The NY Times says the company has a problem because it is replacing too many of the revenue streams that make these type of consumer sales possible- but for the time being, it’s pretty cool!
