For whatever reason the streaming on PS3 is slower to connect and often choppy compared to my 360. I also think (no proof other than my eyes) that non-HD content gets upscaled better on the 360. Just poorer stability and quality in general.
And streaming from my PC to PS3 is basically unwatchable.
Might be a bad machine or something but others have the same issues. 360 is a better central household machine IMHO.
I certainly understand the Xbox live additional cost but given I have it anyways and feel that the 360 is the better machine for these tasks it is what i use. If I didn't have xbox live at the beginning I would have went with PS3 as well but honestly now I'd shell out for the gold membership for these tasks.
Not a MS fanboy or anything...I have both and have since about the beginning. Had both an PS2 and Xbox. I will likely not buy either of the new consoles until they've been out for a year or more. I don't have a horse in the race. (too old and too busy to play much more than a few games of Fifa a week. Kids always around so don't get to play much else).
