For people who are tired of burning DVD's to play a movie they downloaded.Here's a FREE Media server so you can stream to a UPnP/DLNA device. I use it through my Directv and it works GREAT!!Once I'm finished downloading a movie, I can immediately stream it to any TV in the house. I think it's great.
