Uh, no. I almost want to fail you over that ridiculous assumption.

Boxee Box can access shows that have been uploaded legally (usually by a TV network who has uploaded it to their site) for playback on your TV. The picture quality is not impressive, in my experience. Usually, the streams are rather low quality.

I only use the Boxee Box for streaming downloaded content I have on my computer, allowing me to view it on a TV vs. sitting in front of the computer. Quality is only limited to the shows/movies I choose to download.

navi-x says hi...

oh yah, it streams from networks i disagree that the quality is bad...there are some that are very good quality (especially ctv shows)...then again you said usually and youre right as some "channels" are pretty bad quality...

i watched a few episodes off the original knight rider on navi x and the quality was superb...
