1) Perfect SD & HD playback
2) Hdmi (1.3 at least) out
3) Responsive pleasant Gui with a good remote
5) Extensive media format compatibility
6) Web Radio station Playback (Live 365, shoutcast, ect)
7) Smooth network connectivity |
1. Perfect in what sense? the playback is flawless as far as I can see
2. Its got that
3. Their GUI's are... ok. Not pleasant and not extremely responsive. The remotes are also fair, not great.
5. They do that
6. There is no feature in either box that does iRadio, sorry.
7. Yeah its smooth, but be more specific if you want more detail.
I haven't found a ~$100 unit that does iRadio yet, most of them are movies music and pictures, thats it.
