Over on the New York Times there is mention of the new video-streaming app for the Wii called PlayOn. The PlayOn app for the Wii would work pretty much the same way it does for any other game system (PS3 / Xbox360). The cost of the app is $40 which allows you to stream Netflix, Amazon, Hulu, CBS, YouTube, CNN, ESPN and more on your TV. You can see all your digital photos, listen to your stored music, and watch videos stored on your PC through the same PlayOn Digital Media Server. Check out the PlayOn website because they do offer a 14 day trial before you purchase.
