 | "Orb 2.00.0774 Beta" The program works just fine, as said with no malware to turn one off. Even without the TV tuner you can still get over 800 channels. Albeit the viewing size is small. The "Internet TV" program gets over 1200 channels and has a much larger viewing screen. I know this is beta and is a work in progress, so I am looking forward to seeing how it evolves, it really has potential. P.S. I can't see the purpose of buying a tuner, seeing as I much prefer to sit back, relax and watch the big screen TV. Unless you can make it tap into some good movie channels, hint hint, lol. Just kidding, it is a very good program as is.

 | "Unreal!!!" What a great app. This is similar to a small web server in the sense that is does provide the connection to your computer. But what Orb does for you is to already have the site built and the stream coding done for you. It a matter of installation and use. Not too hard to set up, to to hard to administer. I had it crash on me once, but that may have been my fiddling around. I recommend using this in conjunction with Hamachi.
You'll be able to retrieve your media anywhere. I was able to watch episodes of Lost from my PocketPC over a wireless connection while waiting for my kids at the bus stop, and it looked great!!! Highly Recommended !!!
