I want to add that I really am not familiar with Boxee. I watched their introduction video and it appears that it does support Netflix. It is not clear where the movies from the major studios are obtained. Do people just rip DVDs and pirate them or is there some other source?

That's not very convincing coming from them. They said that they're huge Apple fanboys, which means they're willing to sacrifice technological freedom themselves for other types of gadgets. Why is freedom so important for an HTPC-like device, but not for other devices?

Netflix works great on Boxee (and Plex). Hulu blocked boxee, but there are still other apps that provide the same shows.

I don't use boxee (yet. I'm going to pick up a boxee box when they come out), but they appear to support Netflix:
