Orb is a great free alternative. I use it on almost a daliy basis.

Ya, there’s lots of better alternatives to this. Orb and Sling are good ones.

It’s rumored that Apple TV will feature web access for youtube etc. I don’t see how it couldn’t really.

But yes, for those that like to roll their own, there are cheaper methods.

For a free solution with conversion of the media on the fly, directly from your PC, you should check Orb out: http://www.orb.com/wii/index.htm

You can even watch your YouTube favorites with that!!!

My guess is that it uses the photo channel to view them, it just optimizes the file and rips movies.

Oh, and as for Zarox’s link to Apple TV, I think a sling box or an old modded xbox would make for a better and cheaper solution in taking files off your computer and ‘slinging’ them to your tv and surround sound system.
