It is very hodge podged together software, but it does work and he does not subscribe to any TV, video, or movie services. The only down side is he never watches anything live.
We have a home theater PC. All of our movies are ripped to it and it streams as well. It works well for the kids when they want to watch a movie as they don't have to handle the disks. The case looks like this:



We use Kodi (used to be XBMC) for all of our media management. It handles local content and streaming. We also have over the air TV for news and such.
