There's a lot to love and a lot to hope for with the Nexus Q. If you are a Google Play content consumer
The Q could be a useful device for you. As of this writing
Google TV doesn't have a Google Movies/TV Show app available (though it is promised soon)
Setup was easy
And streaming content was just as simple. I didn't have a problem getting music
Movies or YouTube videos to play
So I'd imagine using the Q will be just as easy for other folks

Expensive. Requires an Android smartphone or tablet to work. Can't play video stored on your Android device. No Netflix or Hulu Plus. No streaming audio apps
The Nexus Q is very expensive and doesn't stream from any non-Google services like Netflix
