The Mac is a perfectly good option as the hub of a home entertainment center, and Apple has already shown that with its Front Row application. If you want to take that to the next level, however, itis time to look at MediaCentral from equinux.
MediaCentral recognizes iTunes audio and video content, displays your iPhoto library, goes to the Internet for online movie trailers and clips from Google or YouTube, streams Internet radio stations, plays DVD movies, plays games, and even works as a TV viewer for supported devices. The one thing it canit do – and this is a limitation of Appleis FairPlay DRM technology, not MediaCentral – is play content you purchase at the iTunes Store.
 MediaCentral plays music from your iTunes library. |
