For those of us of the Geek persuasion, adding a Media PC to our TVs makes more sense. A PC can do everything that the boxes you mentioned above can, plus a lot more. For less than the price of the Google box you can have a full featured PC running Windows 7 or Ubuntu. Yes, it is a bit more complicated, but few do not know how to run a system like that, and many of us will appreciate the extra capabilities.
I am also surprised you did not mention the gaming consoles, as they also provide similar services plus gaming, or the many internet capable BluRay players or TVs.
