I used Seasonpass to jailbreak. But I got a discount on it...
And as far as voiding the warranty, that's really not an issue. Like any other jailbreak/root process, if anything actually happens to the device that would require warranty work, they'd never be able to tell it had ever been jailbroken unless you're a complete idiot.
XBMC allows you to do pretty much anything. I can stream any kind of movie/show/music in any possible format from my computer or NAS. I've got the Icefilms plugin, which has every movie, tv show, and more available for streaming. Hulu works fine without needing Plus, and you can even turn off all ads if you want so you never see an ad in Hulu. I can stream Justin.TV sources, along with many other online streams. I can do NHL, NBA, and MLB live for sports. And there's always live sports streams available for any game. There's even streams for normal cable TV channels. I can run Pandora over my home theater, along with Grooveshark. As well as have my entire MP3 collection available from my computer. It's really rich in metadata, so all your movies, tv, music will look similar to this, which is all customizable:
