I'm looking to build/buy a HTPC and am looking for opinions on the best way to go about it.
Ideally I want to be able to:
1) Play files/streams/youtube/netflix etc
2) Automatically download TV shows using something like TED, or Sickbeard
3) Support Squeezebox server
4) NAS storage for files and music.
5) If I could get soarview/freeview that would be cool too, but not that important.
And hopefully be able to use a cheap tablet as a controller.
There's options such as Popcorn Hour, Apple TV, Boxee, WD TV Live, but I don't think any do everything I want. So that leaves either the option of building my own pc, or getting one of those options and then buying a NAS on top it?
