It would be neat if we could easily wrap these various streaming services up in one UI so that you simply search for a movie and it streams it from Netflix or hulu if possible and bittorrent if not. Its unfortunate that in today's world this would get you sued out of existence.
Tivo currently does this (albeit without a bit torrent option) for upcoming live TV, Comcast on-demand, Hulu Plus, Amazon Instant Video and Netflix. There may be more now, but those are the ones I use. You search for a title and it will tell you where it's available and you can watch it from any of them directly from the Tivo UI.
That's a rather interesting startup/service idea. On setup you tell it what services you have accounts on, and then when you search it will tell you the options (with links to signup on new services), and always with a "BitTorrent at your own risk" fallback.
On the contrary, Netflix recently shut down their API and CanIStreamIt was one of only 8 services they allowed continued access. I think they understand the value of it.
