The kicker might be the 'music' part.  None of them are that great for
large collections in my opinion.

I like XBMC best of those choices, but it won't record.  It handles
DVD's and movie files over the network very well, and looks good too.

Freevo was a real pain to configure last time I used it, but worked
well if you got it working the way you wanted.

Install all of them and see what works for you.
