I know, kind of the opposite direction of the streamers, but for an office setting, still need a TV tuner for some applications we use. If there is a streaming box that doubles as a tv tuner with a coax in, that'd be nice. Would keep from having to get a separate pci or usb tuner and a streamer.

TiVO does this. If you consider TiVO + pyTivo and the corresponding transfer step "streaming". Also it does Amazon kinda on-demand and Netflix.

If you roll your own WMC you can do all of it too.

Aren't you describing an HDHomeRun or am I missing something?

Doesn't look like it supports the Roku/WD Live type stuff (NetFlix, Amazon VOD, etc.)

The TiVO does exactly what I'm looking for, thanks :D Not sure monthly fee to access programs with other monthly fees (Netflix, etc.) would be worth it though.

Guess I'll just throw in a pci tuner and be done with it.

Thanks :D

Boxee lets you pull in over the air HD with their USB adapter if that'd do the trick for ya!
