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

[![Google TV update touts Google Play and YouTube movie rentals, distinct lack of popcorn][1] ][2]

If you own one of [Sony's Google TV devices][3], 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][4] as well as in the browser, [with YouTube][5]. The update rollout should grace both Internet TVs and Internet Blu-ray Disc Player owners within the next two days. [Logitech Revue][6] 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.
