Boxee Box Firmware Update is out, Boxee and Vudu Unite

Newly released Boxee Box firmware update contains many bug fixes and adds VUDU movies streaming in the US.

Boxee Box users should now be pleased at the news of Vudu availability for their use. This two night movie rental service can be enjoyed for $2 for Standard Definition or $6 for High Definition per movie. And, speaking of HD according to the Boxee Blog;

“Video is 1080p HD at 24 fps.  Sound is Dolby Digital Plus 5.1 surround. It takes advantage of some crafty engineering from VUDU dubbedTruFilm™ which optimizes the encoding, transmission and display of HDX movies on 40-inch HDTVs and larger screens. It’s kind of hard to believe this stuff is coming over your Internet connection.”

And for all new Vudu users there is a $5.99 credit which is the equivalent of one free HD movie.
