Has anyone tried playback via the Wii? (We almost hooked the Mac laptop up to the TV last night to watch Burn Notice. Too much effort, though and no remote.)

Kevin–

1) Use a Media Center PC, hook to TV.
2) Wait for Sansa’s USB drive store to start hosting NBC shows, download to thumb drive, hook up to TV
3) Use Replay Media Catcher to capture the show (in real time). Save. Use Replay software to convert to something else like AVI. Drop in Tivo folder. Watch on TV using Tivo.
4) Convert from Flash, burn to DVD, watch on TV using DVD player

Etc.

SlingCatcher! Early 2008. (I may be biased as a Sling Media employee.)

Any way to replay these on an actual TV?

Looks like you can in fact capture Hulu vids using a program like Replay Media Catcher. Just tried the demo version, and only on a short clip, but kinda surprised the standard flash stuff worked. Suggests that there’ll soon be a raft of ways to capture and store the hulu videos out there…

I wonder if there is any case that can be made for mandatory licensing like there is for music and radio. It seems strange that NBC can license to other services like Take TV for the same pricing they said was too low on iTunes.
