I like the look and feel of Boxee, it allows you to simply access multiple internet video and music sites and broadcast them on a TV or monitor. Boxee’s the future of internet TV, which replaces your satellite, cable or traditional aerial with a PC and an internet connection.

Currently Boxee is an alpha software release – so expect software bugs – in my tests it seemed pretty stable. The real problem though is the lack of content for potential UK users there’s the BBC, but not ITV, Channel 4 or Channel 5 and none of the big American broadcasters. Boxee does allow content owners to sell premium content like Major League Baseball’s on-demand service but that’s it a t the moment in the future you could see Sky and Virgin supplying premium content – but it’ll be sometime before you can throw away that Sky or Virgin box.

Boxee looks like the future of TV – if it can persuade the content owners.
