I haven't bought one, because I haven't done my office out yet.
Woodsey is the man who has one, and he says it's the best thing he has ever bought.

If you're just using the computer to watch things (and are happy doing that) you can download XMBC for free and watch all the sport you like (and other stuff) |

I've been using the modbro app for the streams so far. However there are loads of streams on XMBC also, in fact there were a couple of really good ones but my Internet isn't fast enough for them to stream smoothly. If it was the picture would be excellent. |

Pretty sure it's only android mate, not sure about an alternative.
As Graham said you can download XMBC to your computer, but it's not easy adding all the various channels,you need to know what you are doing. This box is all set up and ready to go with a ton of things loaded up already.

So what sort of internet connections do people have who are using these boxes? For example, would a 50meg connection be enough to watch a match in HD on a Sky Channel?
I'm guessing it's going to fall between having Sky/Cable HD telly and the crappy streams on the net you can use to watch live sport on your computer - or is it actually a genuine replacement for an HD Sky box?

It'll never be a long term solution, it's watching illegally broadcast streams at the end of the day. Remember Eurovox? That was great whilst it lasted too. These things come and go. One day the streams won't be easily accessible in the UK but you have to make the most of them whilst you can.

If ur getting 50 meg you could watch HD easily mate. My Internet is probably mostly 6-10 I would say and I can watch all the normal non HD films, tv shows etc no problem. Live streams of channels are fine and watchable but not perfect. I suspect if my Internet was better the streams would be a lot better but until I try it I can't say for sure. To be honest for a 100 quid I'm delighted with what I've got and it's better than sticking the computer in the back of the telly when I want to watch something on a big screen. |
