Unfortunately, creating new multi-vendor network protocols takes about 5 years longer than creating a proprietary single-vendor system. Robert, I think that’s called UPnP AV or DLNA.

Consiste en una fórmula que sintetiza y centraliza todo tipo de prestaciones multimedia: ordenadores potentes (con procesador de doble núcleo) pero de reducidad dimensiones que se conecta al televisor y se maneja desde un mando a distancia. Viene a solucionar la multiplicación y dispersión de aparatos dedicados en la casa a reproducir y grabar audio, vídeo DVD, señal de televisión y cualquier otro flujo audiovisual, independientemente de su origen (puede ser internet, la cámara de video…) Todo en uno, con un software específico, que de forma natural Intel imagina que debe ser la solución de Microsoft: Windows Media Center. En realidad, el movimiento de Intel apunta a un mercado emergente en el que se intentan posicionar los grandes fabricantes y distribuidores. Hoy hemos sabido, por ejemplo, que Warner ha llegado a un acuerdo con YouTube para difundir sus clips musicales a través de la red social de vídeos más popular de todo Internet. Y hace poco, Apple anunció su iTV, un dispositivo que permitirá conectar iTunes, i Pod y la tele en una sola red inalámbrica. Existen igualmente soluciones de hardware como Slingbox que redistribuyen la señal de televisión por IP, o programas comno TiVo que modifican radicalmente los hábitos de ver la tele gracias a su libertad de programar las grabaciones. Y la semana próxima (vía Tech Crunch) Intel firmará un acuerdo con AOL para que todos sus contenidos musicales, protegidos por supuesto con DRM, puedan ser visualizados en equipos Viiv una vez descargados.

Especially in the living room, usability is everything. Being first to the punch on this is good for Intel/AOL, but to beat apple they will really need to have a slick, remote controllable interface.

The idea is that media gets downloaded to the PC computer and then served up to -say- a set top box attached to a TV. @Michael: Viiv is Intel’s “Digital Living” platform, which is basically a Windows Media Center PC with some custom software so that it acts like a media hub to multiple (wireless) devices.

Make that software available to hardware producers (i.e. DVR manufacturers) and to companies such as AOL and Amazon. One simple protocol + many different companies = user ease. I guess I'm thinking too far into the future - most simple devices don't support the same formats such as mpeg... It would, however, work with technology such as DVR's (TiVo, etc.).

Akimbo and Movielink already provide content through Windows MCE. AOL obviously has a larger reach and substantial brand recognition and 'Viiv' is a marketing term.
