Recently a hack was discovered that allows for full root access to the box:

However those modifications also limit what you can do with the Box, and removes some of the standard XBMC features. At its core it is a modified version of XBMC with a number social media sharing features added on. I would say they kept them running long past any moral obligation to do so.The BoxeeBox is quite a capable media player. For them, there's virtually no benefit to spending that money other than an unprofitable loyalty to their Boxee customers. I can't really blame D-Link for shuttering the servers. It was a well-made, well-engineered, beautiful piece of hardware. The logo at the front with the changing LED lights was not cheap, either. The remote was expensive with the double-sided keys. The units were not cheap to make, either. Which is too bad, because the user interface work that Boxee did was excellent.įWIW, I think D-Link Taiwan did a very good job of engineering the Boxee Box. They took what they could use and incorporated it, and jettisoned the rest.

I think Samsung mismanaged the takeover and probably gutted all the Boxee software for their SmartTV software. I doubt the Israeli-run Boxee company screwed Samsung. I thought Samsung bought EVERYTHING, including the rights to run the Boxee servers, when they purchased Boxee the company. So D-Link, not Samsung, was still hosting the login servers? Thanks for correcting me. The servers cost them $2,400 a year to pay for. My wife worked at D-Link USA for 18 years, we've been trough this over and over again with D-Link brass to keep the servers going, but the company is Taiwanese and that means BE CHEAP. They pinch a nickel so hard the Bison is knocked off. Boxee never made it in any form to a Samsung TV or device. Samsung bought the Israeli run Boxee, but did nothing with it, there were NO servers involved and I suspect that they quickly realized that that Israeli that ran Boxee had screwed Samsung too, just like he screwed all of us owners. Taiwan must have finally decided to stop that two weeks ago. D-Link paid for the Boxee Box servers for years, and killed off the sharing, access to new apps, etc., BUT kept the Login (anonymous) running internally now in Taiwan instead of a US based server. D-Link was left holding the bag with Boxee Box OS which looked like "Boxee", but was a firmware INSTALLED on a ROM in the Boxee Box.

There is a very big difference between Boxee Box and Boxee.
