All this scripts, that works so good in boxee, why isnt it possible to get them work in xbmc?
I mean, apple trailers, youtube, they work very good in boxee. Shouldnt there be the same good stuff for XBMC?

Oh man if there was an internet video section on XBMC then I would never use boxee! Boxee will be great once it is out of Alpha, but right now there are just too many issues.
Could Xbmc have a video plugin for Julu, Hulu, etc. ?

XBMC content blows Boxee out of the water.The scrips and plugins available through XBMC scrips,the svn plugin repo,odds and ends in the forum and the new XBMC passion.....That include such plugns and scripts as..all the ones you named and alot more.The content should keep you busy for as long as you need entertainment.

Will that navi-x for Xbox work on the ATV? If so, how do you use it on the ATV? Also is there a link on how to use that Hulu download?

Navi-X is NOT for AppleTV. Rodejo has not made plans to expand to ATV at this time. As far as that Hulu plugin, it's a plugin. Put it in your plugins folder then go to your videos section and add the plugin to your list and click on it while connected to the internet to view it. Might I recommend you check out Navi-X first. Just put it in your scripts folder then access your scripts and start watching tv now!

I've now tried a lot of plugins but have as of now found nothing to browse and watch youtube clips that is comparable to the boxee youtube plugin.
Has anyone got any hints for me?
(No, I don't like Navi-X. I want something small, fast and easily accessible from the startup screen...)

In Boxee internet video is much more integrated in the whole video section. I think it is great development of HT software is being taken a step further with Boxee. To bad it isn't as open as XBMC. Because of that it will never achieve what XBMC has achieved.
From what I understand, some stuff that is being written for Boxee will also come to XBMC. Which is more then fair because the community has put a lot of effort into XBMC, and Boxee is based on XBMC.

Yes, and I've read that there will be (or is going to be) integrated opensubtitles.org support in Boxee, which would be a really nice addition to XBMC!

I don't agree with that.
It's like this.XBMC only seems not to have working content because of what YOU want to watch.As a whole,XBMC has much much more than Boxee.There is no argument.
There are many internet channels that have worked for me on XBMC since I first started playing around with it.Most of the ones you speak of are people walking away from their work.If all the people that work on all these scripts stuck to just one we wouldn't have what people want the most(in average).If enough people ask,their is always somebody to keep it up to date.Also many multi-channel scrips and plugins that would take forever for any media center to catch up on.
But on the cross platform situation .....maybe,I can't say I haven't read into it.
