Hulu, Netflix, YouTube CNN.com [truly good source for videos] and CBS.com.The founder of Boxee is aware of how the Internet would upset the "television business by giving people on-demand access to the array of Web content."

While browsing links on "Home Video", we found, " YouTube and Hulu Visit the Living Room" This device connects to a TV via HDMI cable streaming web video to any HD display. "The software also streams your own video, audio and photos from other computers over the TV and plays them back at 1080p resolution with 6-channel audio.
