Good build quality; Great remote; Lots of features;
Glitchy and fiddly; Most compelling services not available in Australia;
To the tech-savvy uber geek, the Boxee Box is one of the best media players on the market today. It’s powerful, well-made, has a great remote and piles and piles of features. Sure, you can’t integrate it into a media rack thanks to its rather self-con...

You could always build a Boxee system yourself. Not all international content is actually available. Notable pause before playing back any file. Unusual shape won't fit in many AV cabinets. Premium price for media streaming ease of use
