Microsoft Announces Internet TV Service And Extenders Allowing HDTV Access & More

By Paul | Sep 29, 2007


Microsoft have announced the forthcoming release of Internet TV, a feature which will allow people to enjoy a range of television and video content on their PCs and TV sets without a TV tuner in their PC.

On September 28th 2007, US users of Windows Vista Home Premium edition and Windows Vista Ultimate edition will find the new beta release inside Media Center.


I have been playing around with this and find one it is really slow on a wireless connection and two, most of programs aren’t even out yet. I will keep people posted!
