Basically LoveFilm is like Netflix for members of the UK and some parts of Europe.
Currently there are a handful of apps and devices that have been granted access to the streaming API for LoveFilm (Boxee included), most of these are 'partners' have a commercial relationship with LoveFilm.
If you'd like to see a plugin for streaming LoveFilm media to XBMC, then XBMC needs to be granted access to the streaming API by the folks over at LoveFilm, and they're not going to do that without people getting in touch an letting them know that...
a) there is a demand for such, and a solid, viable/profitable market
b) the quality of the plugin will be high and look professional
I have set the ball rolling and taken the liberty of getting in touch with the folks over at LoveFilm via their developers site.
Please, please, please(!) take the time out to add your say on the post, let's let them know there is demand... Fingers-crossed we'll be granted access the API and come up with a nice streaming plugin addition to the already fantastic XBMC plugin line-up.
Check the post and have your say!!!
