Vudu BX100 & Vudu XL HD STB

1100+ Movies, 1080p HD Streaming, HD Upscaling

Aimed specifically at those looking for the convenience of on demand content, Vudu’s cunningly entitled Vudu BX100 and Vudu XL set top boxes (okay, their titles not at all cunning on reflection) grant you access to 1100 moves and growing both in 1080p HD and standard definition (which both the Vudu BX100 and the Vudu XL will duly upscale) all with the convenience offered by a compact set top digital box that streams movies directly via the net from Vudu’s extensive and ever growing library of titles according to your wishes and movie watching tastes.

The Vudu BX100 (featured) and the Vudu XL come with a 250GB and 1TB HDD respectively whilst both offer Dolby Digital Plus and Dolby Digital 5.1 audio and HDMI, Component,  S-Video and Composite video outputs and will happily stream both regular and HD content – depending on your internet connection speeds (4Mbps required for HD, 2Mbps required for SD).

Movies will set you back between $4 and $6 (HD and HDX formats) – the Vudu service is subscription free – whilst the new Vudu BX100 STB will set you back around $300 (though with Best Buy’s current $200 on account credit this effectively becomes a mere $100), whilst the Vudu XL will set you back up to around $1000.
