Finally a Gadget That Puts Movies in Their Proper Place
The modern PC is one of the most versatile devices ever created. You can configure your system to handle desktop publishing, multimedia or video game design, word processing or the ultimate game machine. One of the few areas where PCs fail to measure up is video playback. Most consumers have TV screens that are significantly larger than their PC monitors. Myka latest gadget which is also named Myka is an open standard BitTorrent device that allows you to easily move your legitimate movie downloads to your TV set. Other “video boxes” - like Blockbuster or Netflix/LG - use proprietary technology. If the consumer buys movies from both Netflix and Blockbuster, they will need to have both of their boxes. This is a waste of both space and money.
The Myka uses the Linux operating system. Its internal hard drive comes in an assortment of sizes. (500, 160 or 80 GB) The Myka plays the following formats: WMV, DivX, MPEG2 and h.264. The device requires either a WiFi or LAN internet connection. Myka has teamed up with isoHunt to ensure that only legitimate media will be downloadable into the device. This move encourages other media content providers to team with Myka since the company has made it clear that it has a zero tolerance for media piracy.
Myka president, Dan Lovy, explains further. “Bit Torrent is actually installing their certified system onto Myka. Any torrent can be pointed to by the box and downloaded. We will be adding a send to Myka button on many of the larger torrent sites. Check out the news piece on isoHunt. We are currently running an ad campaign with them. We are starting with the BitTorrent community. We will actually licensing our system to any hardware vendor as a white label service. We think this is the future. The torrent community is our beach-head.”
Pricing information is not currently available for the Myka. Their alliance with BitTorrent, one of the web’s leading media content providers, positions the company for success. As more and more consumers switch to High Speed Internet solutions, media content becomes more and more important. The Myka allows you to easily view your purchased movies and television shows comfortably whether at home or on the road.
