No BS Podcast #86: Hologram Fail

On Nathan's report of the WD media player......

This sounds similar to products that are made by a company called TVix.  Basically they are external HD enclosures with all the usual AV outputs for your TV, but also have wired/wifi network connections as well as usb.  You can play content off the HD within the unit, off a usb attachment or stream from a network share.  This unit also doubles as an FTP repository (NAS), external usb drive, supports loads of codecs, plays internet radio and firmware is upgradable to support future codecs.

 I bought one of these a few months back and it has taken the hassle out of watching stuff in my living room - highly recommended.
