Seagate Adds Streaming to FreeAgent Theater+ HD Media Player
Seagate today announced that its FreeAgent Theater+ HD media player now delivers easy access to content from Netflix Inc. and other providers such as YouTube, vTuner and Mediafly. Customers of these services will have access to an even larger pool of both user-generated and licensed Internet-based media on their TV using the FreeAgent Theater+ HD media player. All new enhancements are being offered to existing FreeAgent Theater+ HD media player owners through a free, automated firmware update that can also be downloaded from Seagate.com, and will be included as part of all future product shipments. The media player is also now UPnP/DLNA compliant, enabling access and sharing of digital content using any DLNA compliant device on a network, including the Seagate FreeAgent DockStar network adapter. We reviewed the Seagate FreeAgent Theater+ HD Media Player late last year here.
FreeAgent Theater+ HD media player plays an important role in the evolution of how people are now enjoying digital media, said Dave Mosley, executive vice president, Sales, Marketing and Product Line Management at Seagate. We first envisioned this product as a way to move highly valued family photos and videos from the PC environment to the home entertainment center, but it has now become much more. The combination of access to local storage and streaming media playback with access to a wealth of online content makes the FreeAgent Theater+ HD media player a valuable addition to modern home entertainment systems.
