I still use Boxee software I downloaded in 2010 on my living room HTPC I built myself. It's ability to organize show and play all downloaded content is unparalleled still. And I love controlling it all with a remote as an app in my iPhone. I would gladly pay $10/month to use the software, but I would never buy that stupid box with all it's limitations. Yet Boxee did everything to alienate users like me to try to sell those boxes. They discontinued the software, updated the iPhone app to NOT work with the software without the box, etc. Those things generated an outcry from all software users, but Boxee ignored it, because if these are not paying users, then who cares? And no one still bought those boxes anyway. Lesson is: listen to your most passionate users. You will find a way to turn them into paying users, it's much better strategy than to ignore them and try to co quer new unknown markets.
