Advantages of an XBMC box over a rouk 1 running plex with unsupported apps?

johnsmi

Hey folks,


Just got a few nowtv's box's initially and then discovered plex on here, installed it on both the desktop and nowtv box's and must say I am really impressed. Also messing around with the unsupported plugins on the plex.


I love the whole media streaming thing for a low cost to every tv in the house, really a big fan now, I have got a roku 1 at currys as well, lots more channels than the now box's.


After doing some reading on the net about similar streaming box's XBMC Just wondering what really are the advantages if any, of running one of those, over say a roku 1 with pex on both the desktop and roku, and having the unsupported apps plugins on Plex.


Thanks for any info.
John

as the xbmc system uses streaming , it is frowned on by "some" gobby forum members

I use Kodi (aka XBMC) running under the Openelec system on the new Raspberry pi 2 and it works really well for me streaming TV and films.
