A ridiculously large library of channels available for download (some are free and some require subscriptions), New interface is fast, intuitive, Search feature allows users to peruse content on various services at once, Can listen to content via headphon
Playback is limited to very specific files, Ugly, Doesn't support DLNA, despite the fact that it hooks into a home network
