So what is everyone using for online streaming now? looking for anything that has the native feel in 7MC

I use :
Hulu desktop with desktop launcher
netflix
Amazon unbox


tried and rejected:
Macrotube
secondruntv
boxee

still hoping someone would write an app that would use the content forom onlinevideos for mediaportal and make it native to 7MC or port it to MC

This mediaportal your suggesting is very similar to playon. I really like using playon coupled with vmcplayit for media center for online streaming. Have you tried these?

I had looked at them but never tried them. I understood there was a $$ fee for playon and I did not see all the content I was looking for. The one I miss the most is Yahoo! music videos.

Playon does cost money but I think it is worth it. You can get yahoo videos using this playon script: Radio Live script.
