Google TV update touts Google Play and YouTube movie rentals, distinct lack of popcorn

If you own one of Sony’s Google TV devices, it’s now considerably easier to curl up with a flick or two. Google has just pushed out a 2.1.1 update that allows watching movies rented through Google Play as well as in the browser, with YouTube. The update rollout should grace both Internet TVs and Internet Blu-ray Disc Player owners within the next two days. Logitech Revue viewers aren’t quite so well off: Google is only asking them to “stay tuned,” which to us is a sign we shouldn’t give up Netflix just yet.
