Understudy Adds Netflix and Hulu to Front Row

Anyone with a Mac surely appreciates the fluidity of the Front Row experience, but what about when you want to stream free/subscription content? Well, Understudy allows streaming of Netflix and Hulu right into Front Row.


Understudy is a free (publicly open) Front Row add-on that’s part of the Google Code library. Apparently you subscribe to Netflix and Hulu feeds within Front Row, then you can stream their content at will.

I’ll personally probably never have a use for the app, but some guy with the humongo-sized iMac in his dorm room is absolutely flipping the fuck out right now.

AU: Obviously US only at the moment, unless you want to hack around it, of course.

    Surf in 60″‘s (like NOW)… Plus Netfix/HULA via understudy…this is a real multi-media PC setup. I am “flipping the fuck out right now”…you would be too if you were sitting here with me.
