xain092Forget about all the others. Trust me.
Five stars and great support too.
Why? It looks great! There are skins. Easy to manage. Just works. Coverflow on your lcd-tv!
All content available via a remote. Plays almost every video file even from mounted volumes!
Got a MacMini? Got a big Tv? Got loads of movies, music and pictures? Try it! Simple as that.

iceman4XHub integrates very well with Salling clicker and together they provide quite an experience in the Mac Home Media Center!!
It's a crying shame, since the latest release of Front Row, while stable, has an even more pathetic interface.
