Raspberry pi with Kodi hooked up to a projector and a NAS serving files works well for me.
This is the way, although the pi is to slow for me at this point and I replaced it with shields.
Also why the are people connecting tvs to their networks...fuck that noise.
I mean that's nice but can you run Netflix/Hulu/AppleTV/HBO through that thing? Or can you only play media that you illegally downloaded?
Without any regard as to veracity:

What about the rest of them?
Do your own googling, I got bored after 3 :p
I haven't tried. Through a Web browser, maybe. There's a Kodi netflix addon, I know that. It's just a Debian box, so any solution that'd work on a Linux machine would probably be okay.
I don't think there is a Linux solution. That's the problem.
What do you mean? I gave you a couple of Kodi plugins that cover most of what you mentioned, plus, you could probably just use a Web browser.
That's not really a "solution" so much as a "workaround". It's unofficial community-maintained software with complicated installation, limited features, and that the service providers can break at any time. And even if that weren't the case, that's only 2 providers.
If I need to use a web browser, why wouldn't I just skip Kodi altogether and just plug in my laptop?
There's a reason Google TV is an entirely different operating system from Chrome OS.
