To save me doing a lot of googling/reading can you tell me the advantages of putting XBMC on a Fire box?

I had considered Fire TV but dismissed it as it doesn't have all the catchup services, if it had them from launch i would have snapped one up for £49.
If you look on hotukdeals there is a code for £10 off first order at tesco direct which would bring the Amazon fire tv down to £69 it's how i got mine.
XBMC is very good i can't discuss it much here but you'll get a lot of say tv shows n movies for free if you use the right addons, also i find it very good for playing my own video files too.
