Chillcast Podcast & Vidcasts on Boxee

Both The Chillcast and Chillcast Video are now available on the Boxee Beta via a Mevio Network app. Boxee is a free cross-platform home theater program designed to organize and play all manner of media, from streaming online video and audio, to audio, video, and photos from your own hard drive, on either your computer or television. It also integrates social network aspects, so you can rate and recommend content to your friends.

Having only briefly checked it out, I can see some similarities to Hulu, Roku, and Miro (which also includes Chillcast Video). It looks like there is promise as an elegant solution to the ever-growing problem of collecting all your content in one place with easy-to-use functionality. I’m particularly excited at the prospect of using the Boxee Remote iPhone app to control my streaming Netflix content.

Having just joined Miro in the past few weeks, its an honor to already have been recognized by them.
