On my tests, Parallel runs way much faster, at least for PlayOn, which is CPU hungry.

We do use VMware at work, very large scale and in a very complex configuration for MS-SQL boxes, but I believe that for home users, Parallels or VirtualBox (for Linux) are a better choice.

Thanks for the link though. I'm not "married" to any product so will take your comments into considerations.

Reading this thread has made me think twice for my Mac Mini Lion upgrade. I prefer wait and pay 30 bucks later but be able to fix my streaming issue now.
