Just wish I could get IPTV to work on it here in Holland, then I could ditch my mediacenter Wink

If they made more deals with content providers internationally (read: if Microsoft over here stopped doing absolutely nothing in this field and started making deals with Ziggo and UPC and whatever other cable providers there are over here) and if it was easier to play different types of videos (.MKV for instance), I'd have no more need for Media Center. Make it so!

Other providers would follow suit.

Ziggo and UPC are DVB-C broadcasters, so they are out of the question for XBox, unless they start doing IPTV.

XS4All has 200 hours of online recording and IPTV, so it would literally destroy my need for a mediacenter.
