Its Satellite TV for your PC with 4000 channels. And no, its not a membership or subsciption service that you have to pay monthly fees. I paid $99.95 for the software, downloaded it, installed it and started watching TV just like that.
I got News, Weather, Movies, Radio Stations, Educational stuff, Shopping, Kids programming, Sports ( I never miss a football game anymore because I'm not at home or the dang truckstops won't turn it on )
Anyhow, heres a link to the site.

Oh yeah, almost forgot, I also got one of those $59.00 home theater systems from walmart on my truck with 2 tiny speakers and I put the subwoofer under my bunk. Hooked it up to my computer and it makes the movies sound awesome and the radio stations Rock!

SPAM SPAM SPAM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This guy is soooooo full of :dung:
THIS SERVICE SUCKS.... I KNOW I WASTED $50.00

The poster fails to mention that most of the channels that you'll receive are crap. They also fail to mention the fact that you need high-speed internet to watch streaming video.
If anyone buys this, I'm going to hunt you down and pee in your fuel tanks!!!

don't pee in my fuel tanks....I downloaded a cracked version of the software from demonoid.. and tried it for free.....you're 100 right--nothing but crap channels(if you could call them channels) and shitty hangup video(slow streaming speed)

Well I got a slingbox and hooked it up last couple nights- in eager anticipation of of the upcoming start of Battlestar Galactica final season- can't say I'm very impressed with the remote streaming via Cingular/AT&T aircard GPRMS/EDGE- atleast right here in my own darn backwoods location-
seems a -80dBm(3 bars) isn't enought to keep the video from hanging up- pathetically - Guess I'll have to hope for a 3mbps( 3G) connection-- right place/right time.

an update on my slingbox connection via AT&T aircard with Wilson Antenna connected.
well with all 5 bars(signal) the slingbox works/plays video for me without hanging up....usually reads 150kbps-180kbps sometimes spikes to 200kbps- the resolution is low res- but you can makeout a pretty good general idea of what's going on.
On a side note-- with a LAN WI-FI connection-- it works awsome- with 1200-1900 kbps streaming speed.
