I'm not sure why Freevo wasn't more popular. Python makes
modification easy, even if you aren't a programmer.
I still prefer to launch my favorite media centers from Freevo 1. I
regret that I never did get around to working on the wiki. Thanks to

Apologies, I can't design either! However, you could steal some ideas

usable, and Hulu has an easy interface, if not terribly pretty.
