Sling Loses Its Hardware Hat And Goes Hunting Online | tinyCrunch

by Jason Wilk on October 2, 2008

  • SlingMedia, makes the hardware (soon to be software) that lets users stream their home television signal to an Internet device anywhere with DVR capabilities.
  • They are now launching Sling.com, which will be offering premium content from over 60 major partners (TV Networks, Movie Studios, Sports Leagues) to be viewed on demand. 
  • Now SlingMedia has a serious advantage over Hulu by matching their premium online content, but also integrating their previous business of streaming television with DVR capabilities online. No more waiting for Hulu to put up the latest episode, because you will already have it recorded. 
  • The service is in private beta, request an invite here
