If the AFTV ever does get Now TV, it could turn out to be one of the best boxes around. With Netflix and Prime it would have the three main UK streaming services plus a bunch of other video sources and all but one UK Catchup service, (which presumably will appear at some stage). Plus you can install Kodi, which allows me to play my own personal DVDs that I've ripped.

And the previous downside for me of not being able to control it with my Harmony Touch Universal remote has been resolved by plugging a FLIRC into the USB port.
