I hate to say it but I agree. What I'm seeing here is that with the
far lower WAF of 0.21 vs 0.20 (due to severe stuttering) everyone is
taking advantage of NetFlix's Instant Watch service. My son's given up
on Linux completely, but that's mostly because he's 16 now and not 12
and I don't have the energy to fight about it. ;-) My wife wants to
run Linux for her desktop but watch NetFlix on the big screen. Having
a real Myth frontend on a windows box could be nice as it supposes
that I can switch between Myth and NetFlix without so many reboots.
BluRay is another good reason although we don't use it yet.
