    I quite liked it when I tried it but it isn't as polished as Media Center but it does offer more features and can even handle a mixture of tv cards (MCE only likes all digital or all analog) and also uses the DVB TV guide. The only reason I reverted was the music player was a pain to use with a remote compared to media centers version. There are also some plugins which are no longer maintained but I believe they were planning to remove those from the 1.0 release.
