Built a dedicated download box out of an Ouya and an external hard drive.

Hung an external hard drive off it, set NewsbinDroid to download to the external hard disk and then started downloading. It's still rough but, it works. It downloads, repairs and unrars. Seeing download speeds of 50 Mbps which is pretty decent for a little underpowered $100 box that's powered by a last gen cell phone CPU.
According to what I'm reading, the Ouya uses about 5 watts of power when it's busy.
The software isn't quite ready for a public showing but, it's getting pretty close. The download engine has been super reliable. The GUI is decently reliable too. It just needs more. It works perfectly when things go 100% but, you can't tell what's wrong when it's not 100%.
