So do the WD Live products stream all file formats without need for converting? I am thinking most ISOs and avi files like you would normally get through torrents.
It looks pretty slick and would be great for adding to a few TVs that dont have Telus boxes.

I still use my WDTV Live for everything. I do use my 360 for the odd Netflix use. My father-in-law has picked up the boxee box, and he now swears by that. I'll own one of those in about a week. For the price of the WDTV live now (its about $40-50 cheaper now) i still think it is a great solution for playing the most common formats (ISO, divx, MKV, youtube)
I should add, the stock firmware for WDTV is just pure crap. Add the b-rad firmware adds SOOO much to it, that it is worth playing around with.
