There are a ton of non-standard everyone does their own thing products out there. The biggest are Netflix and the like. Look at the top of a current generation Blu-ray Disc player for a good idea of this stuff.
Frankly, you shouldn't be looking at any receivers to deliver these products because they end up being buggy, constantly needing firmware updates, and often underperform on the main reason you go it - taking care of your A/V amplification and switching needs.
