> i barely even understood your response to be honest
- IMDB & TMDB are collections of movie data.
- XBMC (aka XBox Media Center) is a piece of software that plays videos and will grab information about those videos from IMDB or TMDB to display to the user (e.g. when you're watching a movie, it will show you a synopsis of the movie, boxart, etc grabbed from the web).
- This post is just about a program that will allow you to say "I want information about a movie called A Christmas Story " and it will fetch that information from the web, and display it. The only real benefit of this, is being able to do the query/view the response from a text terminal, instead of just going to the website.
