It's slightly over $200 at $230, but the 2013 Nexus 7 (16GB) is very good (NOT the 2012 Nexus 7).
I've seen the "Nexus 7" at around $200 or below but be very careful again that it's not the older version.
I really can't think of anything below $200 that's close to it.
STREAMING MEDIA:
I'm sure it's possible but I spent a while trying to get an Android App that would stream media to my sister's tablet and couldn't get it working.
I tried VLC and a few others. There are actually TWO ways to play media:
1) Decoded by PC first then streamed as video
2) Accessed by tablet then DECODED on tablet.
It's far better if you can setup your PC to act as the media server as tablets have limited decoding abilities compared to a PC with the proper decoders. Again, though not sure how yet and no longer have a tablet to play with.
There may be other settings such as Hardware decoding, and setting up a SHARED FOLDER in your PC so the tablet can access it. So you need to find a good tutorial.
