I did not perform a direct hands-on review of the Boxee Box, but I did download the Boxee software to my Mac to explore the interface. So, it's your choice: Buy the Boxee Box for $199.99 or load the free software onto your own device and then connect said device to your A/V system. As the name suggests, the Boxee Box takes the same platform and puts it in a freestanding box that can sit in your equipment rack.

In fact, it's still available as a free software platform that you can download and install on a PC, a Mac, or even an iPad. The Boxee interface actually existed before the Box. The user interface is really the key to a system like this, and D-Link has developed a smart, generally intuitive system for browsing and accessing local and Web content. The Boxee Box is also a hub for your own digital media: It can access the music, photos, and videos on your networked computers, as well as files stored on USB drives or SD cards. Search D-Link's robust App Store, and you'll find plenty of content choices to suit a variety of interests. The Boxee Box helps you find and play Web content-be it from pay providers like Netflix and VUDU (with Hulu Plus coming soon) or from free services like YouTube, Pandora, last.fm, Picasa, and Flickr.

Look for LED HDTVs and Plasma HDTVs to pair with the D-Link Boxee.

But what if you purchased your entertainment system before this latest craze? What if you're otherwise happy with the HDTV and Blu-ray player that you already own? Do you have to upgrade your gear in order to enjoy all of this Web-based content? Not at all, thanks to standalone media players like D-Link's Boxee Box. It's certainly a value-added feature that brings the wide world of the Web to your big screen. A good portion of new HDTVs and Blu-ray players include some type of Web platform that provides access to streaming video and music, photo sites, social networking tools, and more. Access to Web services has become a coveted feature in the home entertainment world.
