So I managed to get Raspian working with XBMC and have uploaded an image of my SD card for anyone else to try if they wish.  Take a look at my forum post on the Raspbian site.  The SD images have also been mirrored by the user "Fire" on Google Docs, something I didn't know was possible! - Take a look

This version definitely is quicker than OpenElec although the OpenElec version does have a few extra features such as a advanced settings menu found under 'Programs'.  In addition, I haven't been able to add my NAS server to video's list as the option to add a source doesn't exist as it does with Music.  

I'm using the setup primarily to play music from my ReadyNAS, there is one major disadvantage over using my dedicated media centre PC and that is audio quality/setup.  Currently, my AV reciever does not accept audio from HDMI, it is simply a passthrough to allow 2 devices into the amp and auto-switch to the device you require.  Audio for these feeds is handled separately through optical or coaxial.  
With Raspberry Pi, there are 2 options for audio output; HDMI or 3.5mm jack.  If I use HDMI I can pass the audio to my TV and then use an RCA cable from my TV audio out to my amp to play audio from the TV.  The disadvantage with this method is that when you turn the TV off, audio stops outputting from the TV!
Therefore, as I try not to waste energy and often turn my TV off during music playback, I have settled for analogue output from the 3.5mm output on the Pi to my amp via a 3.5mm to RCA cable.  The disadvantage with this is worse audio quality which isn't a huge issue but is noticable between tracks as loud crackles can be heard!  In addition, the gap in between tracks can take up to 7 or 8 seconds for some strange reason.

I've been looking into a USB optical/SPDIF output but so far I am reluctant to purchase one as it may not be fully compatible with the Pi.  There is a hardware compatibility list on eLinux but so far no USB sound cards exist with a SPDIF output.

One last thing, check out my Pi below with its custom case built by Shropshire Linux User Group!  I've added two adhesive heatsinks to the main IC's to help with heat dissipation which I robbed from an old passive cooling graphics card kit.  The little black rubber bung on the yellow video out helps the Pi sit snug inside the case.
