I've been planning on building an HTPC and have been caught up on the hardware. However I've come to realize that the software is much more of an issue at this point.
Mandatory requirements:
Stream Netflix
Stream Amazon video on demand
Watch cable TV
Play DVD
Optional requirements:
console emulators
possibly other light controller friendly games
OS can be Windows or Linux.
Right now streaming both Netflix and amazon is the issue. I've read that an amazon plugin is available for windows media center but am unable to locate it. I tried the Netflix plugin for windows media center and it doesn't even let me log in. Most other software doesn't support Netflix and none of them even mention Amazon.
Is my goal even obtainable?
