Maybe I'm just an old fart, but I find usability of the Myth Frontend to
be leaps and bounds beyond XBMC. It's simple and discoverable. XBMC
puts way too much emphasis on eye candy and is completely unusable to
me. I spent an hour trying to play a video and failed to figure out how
to. Haven't touched it in two years (hopefully it's improved since then).
