    slingbox vs sony location free vs ???

    Not your standard newbie question but I was wondering if any of you good folk have used one of the above or something better?

    I'm faced with an extended stay in a foreign hotel and thought that taking a bit of telly with could ease the pain.

    After their rootkit based DRM thing and their shutting down of Lik Sang I have vowed to never buy anything made Sony again. I even got myself an XBox 360 rather than a PS3 (which if you have avatars enabled will most likely shock you )
    Listen to my last album on Spotify

      Ive read your post but damned if I can make head or tail of it - perhaps Im getting too old - or too weary.

      Anyway its off to the Rotters Club for me - do enjoy the aforementioned new-fangled-whatever-the-devil-it-is...

        Check

        I haven't heard happy things about Sony's offering in general. I don't think I could write the whole company off though - I would need to replace all the A/V kit in m house. Besides they do make really good TVs.

          Bastards!

          Hadn't realised they'd shut down Lik Sang

          I used to be quite a Sony fan but their product reliability, copy protected CDs, rootkits and heavy handed tactics like this really annoys me.

          Blu-Ray can go to hell as far as I'm concerned (and that's Sony again using heavy tactics to dominate the market and force prices up).

              At least I can make lots of money thanks to MS

              If I wanted to develop in some Sony system I'd have to pay them big licence fees for the privilege.
