Interesting to see where the snapstream folks are spending their time...

A few comments... There's lots of stuff out there to do this kind of thing today, ranging from the free and fairly constrained (eg. myhtpc) to the expensive/very feature rich/esoteric (eg. mainlobby/dvdlobby).

I'd imagine that the reality of the htpc market place today is that Beyond Media won't have legs unless it is thrown in as a part of Beyond TV.

A more practical view of Beyond Media would be related to providing hardware vendors with a single source solution to compete with XP media center. That probably has more legs, and could generate some real revenue for Snapstream. And of course, having a remote as part of the mix makes this scenario even more probable.
