Helios Labs has released a software update for its Odyssey Media Hub that adds support for BitTorrent and ED2K (eMule) peer-to-peer file sharing protocols. The idea is that users can configure media downloads via a Web browser, and watch them at their convenience on their living room TV without the overhead (and noise) of a full-blown PC.
“With the Internet becoming more about media and entertainment, connecting the Web directly to the living room where your best media settings and sound systems are is an irrefutable [sic] step for us,” said Helios Labs CEO Jean Chen. “After all, the living room is the most comfortable and preferred platform for enjoying entertainment at home.”
