I have found a few receivers that seem to do what I want such as:

  • Yamaha RX-Z11 (+ $4,000)
  • Onkyo TX-NR905 (+ $1,500)
  • Denon AVR-4306 (+1,300)

However, I don’t need anything this high end.

If you know of a resource for web browser enabled receivers a link would be appreciated. Thanks.

I have to agree with Jobs question also: "Do you even know anyone who owns a Zune?"  I know I don’t.

One minute the *gadget and *modo guys are creaming their jeans over Steve Jobs and the next they cry about him stating the obvious. Please go back to playing with your Wii.
