We are watching or listening to streamed content nearly every day. It is a great supplement when we cannot find anything interesting the broadcast channels. I think that Internet streaming to the TV will become an important outlet for video content over time. It will be something that the Pay TV providers have to include in their offering. I think that Internet streaming to the TV will bring the cost of Pay TV down as more people "cut the cord" as I have done and replace Pay TV services with a combination of broadcast and Internet streaming content.

do you know if there is a way to stream any video feeds from your computer to the VBR231 player and watch it - kind of in the same fashion that you can do with an X-Box360?
No, there is no way to do this. You can do this kind of thing with a TiVo.
