    Does it need to be portable? If not get an 360.

    I use a WD TV live (albeit not for Netflix - although it does support it) and can recommended it unequivocally. It retails for £67.97 at Scan at the moment, so unfortunately it doesn't quite meet your under £50 criteria!

    Have a look at this Android PC on a stick - £48.98 delivered - video demo here

    There are cheaper models too, you missed this one for £24.98 delivered.

    I picked one of these up from John Lewis for £59 a couple of months ago, but it's now £89.99 Can definitely recommend it though, has good DLNA support too...
