Western Digital today introduced a new entertainment
options for its WD TV Live and WD TV Live Hub media
players.
Current and new users can now enjoy Red Bull TV, ABC
iview (Australian Broadcasting Corporation), Acetrax,
Maxdome, the BILD TV-App, and the AOL On Network. They
can also watch live and recorded TV with the new
SlingPlayer app and save their premium HD movies to the
WD TV Live Hub's internal storage with VUDU.
WD's new entertainment choices add to the WD TV media
player family's ability to play personal content such
as videos, photos and music by supporting a wide range
of media formats. Users can watch content located on any
networked PC or Mac computer in the home, from a network
drive and from any directly connected digital camcorder,
camera, or USB drive. WD TV Live Hub owners can also
save and share pictures and videos from outside the
home, using the WD Photos app for iPhone, iPad and
Android mobile devices.
The WD TV Live Hub is the only media player to offer
direct HD movie download service for new movie releases
purchased from VUDU's large library of movies and TV
shows. VUDU is a subscription-free, HD video streaming
service, which offers more than 70,000 blockbuster
titles including new releases, Hollywood classics,
independent films, and TV shows. Because it has an
integrated 1TB hard drive, the WD TV Live Hub can save
and play back purchased digital content from VUDU,
including the high-quality HDX video format that
features 1080p Full HD and Dolby Digital Plus 7.1 audio.
