Ondemand / services

Why are companies and gadgets so behind; its the technology of today - ondemand. So why are there only a couple of services available? We should have 4od, itv player, 5 ondemand, lovefilm, nowtv etc.  I thought the purpose of a media player is to take the PC out of the equation and be able to watch stuff on your TV without the agro. If you still have to connect a PC to a TV to watch basic free to air TV then something is wrong.

If WD got their act together they could be very clever and gain more sales due to this feature.

I understand their are copyright/ license issues however surely judging by how many are available on the ipad etc it would be feasible? I just feel there is a general lack of effort in this area.

Hi, I think it is just a matter of time before all the important services are available.

Hi, it is nice idea to use WD Live streaming device workable without PC or downloaded files.

It would be nice to have additional services:

  • some kind of internet browser with video watching ability
  • Russian video resources (like IVI -  http://www.ivi.ru/))
  • IPTV
  • torrents

Unfortunately Russian videos wasn’t represented by any video service at all.
