Refrub 40GB ATV or WDTV Live?

hi
I've been toying with getting some sort of media interface for my living room for quite some time. My thoughts about Apple TV are the device is really limited unless you do some hacking (which I'm not opposed to). I do like the concept of WDTV Live especially because it now supports streaming, but it is more limited when it comes to its potential to view online content. Their price point is about the same. I would obviously love to just get a Mac Mini but I can't justify spending double or triple what one of these devices costs to do more or less the same thing. Thoughts?
