Yahoo Acquires (Most of) Meedio

Internet giant Yahoo has acquired most (but not quite all) of digital-home software maker Meedio. Yahoo is acquiring most of Meedio’s technology and core players, but is not taking over the Meedio product line, which includes the Meedio TV DVR software, Meedio Essentials media center software, and the Meedio HouseBot home automation system for Windows.

If you’re a Meedio customer, the company says it will keep providing Electronic Program Guide (EPG) data through July 1, 2006 and will keep its online forums active for a while. However, Meedio’s software is no longer for sale, its support center is closed down, and the company is changing it’s name to the very-clever PsyKoh LLC.

Meedio Celebrates 200 Media Center Plugins

Meedio announced that its developer community has submitted 200 plugins, themes, and extensions to the Meedio Add-In Directory (MAID). To celebrate, the company is discounting its Meedio Essentialsdigital media center application to $20.00 until April 30. Meedio Essentials, which recently won a 2005 CES Innovations and Design award, normally retails for $59.95 from the company’s website atmeedio.com. The application, built on topof Meedio’s open platform, is favored by many developers for the ease with which it can be customized and extended.

Meedio Essentials turns an existing PC into a media center by letting users organize and access their digital media with a television and remote control. Meedio Essentials is completely customizable, with access to innovative plugins for RSS news, Skype, Netflix, recipes, web browsing, movie listings, and many more.
