Excitement? How about Youtube Theater View!

I know folks would love that, and there is an official API to it (which I'm sure you know about)...

Well I just took a look at the promo for it (http://www.apple.com/appletv/features.html#youtube) and I would want it to be even simpler in MC with bigger words and buttons.  You should have a dedicated search area in the middle, play/seek functionality (overlayed) on the video, and related videos somewhere below or to the side.. Thats about it for me.

Considering how much time I waste on Youtube, the idea of being able to waste even more from the comfort of my couch using just my remote is too good to pass. This gets my vote. :)

Integrate Piclens into Theater View: http://www.piclens.com.  It is amazing for browsing You tube or pictures on a big screen!

That would be too good, but surely piclens are gunning for big bucks with their app, given the lack atm of any viable competitors.

How long will that continue to be the case :)

Immersive browsing is still at an early stage.

I love piclens and use it all the time. Would be fantastic having a similar interface for local media in MC :)
