Anyone try this yet? Looks like a cleaner, simpler version of XBMC and I guess no repos needed?

Edit: Nevermind.

Well I wouldn't say cleaner, nor the speed, but looks pretty cool. No way I'd let another system manage my torrenting though. Seems like trouble.

Well I meant cleaner in the sense that XBMC is kind of a pain in the ass to find a working file. The idea of streaming while d/ling extremely appeals to me since I don't really keep any movies/shows I bootleg. I will try this over the weekend. Plus I heard you can rig it with Chromecast although I'll likely go HDMI laptop to TV anyways.

What do you mean?

My setup auto recognizes new files, runs a few scripts for the SQL indexes automatically, and when I get on it's all there. I horde though. If you're not keeping them it's probably not worth the initial setup.

Maybe it's the software I use. I strictly use Mashup. What do you use?
