Just wondering what the devs and longtime XBMC users think about the XBMC off shoots like Boxee, Plex and others?
These are quickly gaining popularity since they are making usability and connectivity to online services priority.
I like XBMC but the others are quickly catching up. I don't think it will be long before the others are on par with the slick things XBMC does, plus adds all the online services many of us want but currently must use scripts and plugins to get... which are not really integrated in XBMC - clunky to access/use.
This is not a "feature comparison" thread - please do not post reviews or wishes lists. This is for the devs/users to give thought on how XBMC will be affected by the off shoots and possibly what the future of XBMC can be.
