    There are a few free apps to do this on the Wii, not sure about the other two consoles as I dont have one.

    Also the Wii's new updated internet browser supports flash, so you can do stuff like youtube videos.

    I wouldn't recommend to anybody a Wii for any serious streaming use though its just not powerful enough, but it can be fun to toy with.

    The PS3 and Xbox360 however can do pretty well as long as you have basic needs.
