The editors didn't like
The best streaming channels require paid subscriptions or pay-per-view fees. There's no support for Amazon Instant or Vudu. The remote buttons are rubbery
And the onscreen keyboard is a pain to use. DLNA support is spotty
There isn't yet a smartphone...
Navigating menus isn't instantaneous
Browsing through radio stations and YouTube videos is laggy
Doesn't support Vudu.
Rubbery remote control buttons
Potential 1080P playback issue
Line of site remote
Since manual is actually useful it would be nice to have a searchable version on the device

The inclusion of so many web-based services makes the WD TV Live an interesting proposition for those sitting on the Smart TV fence. And let's not forget that it is at its core, a media player designed to play your music, videos, and photos, which it d...
After several weeks of living with the WD TV Live along side my HTPC, identifying the preferred video playback device is a tossup. It is easier and quicker to organize, modify or otherwise manipulate the media files on the network with the HTPC. Howev...
