Boxee fans, today's your lucky day: the service has just released its Beta to the general public. You can download the new version of the steaming video hub here . The new version is really a complete overhaul of the app — it's received a new, sexier UI that makes it easier to browse through the service's content (and anything you might have saved locally too). Niceties include the ability to filter a show by season and episode and easier sharing using Boxee's social features. There's a lot that's changed in the background too, including a switch from OpenGL to DirectX and support for hardware-accelerated video decoding for Windows users.
