Microsoft to launch Media Center TV streaming
In what sounds like a show across the bow of the likes of Orb and the Slingbox, according to BetaNews
Microsoft is testing an add-on to Windows Media Center which would allow users to stream live TV from their Media
Center PC across the Internet through their web browser. BetaNews says Microsoft is being "wary of copyright
issues," so expect the software to be DRM-heavy. The product is currently in internal testing but Microsoft will
likely conduct an open(ish) beta in the future.[Via Engadget]

Sounds like an interestingfeature wor MCE. I have to say that the SlingBox totally rocks...Around the house or out of town...heck even when I'm at the office and need to catch the news. If MCE adds this capability it will be cool, but I don't think sling has to worry too much. There will be a lot of people who won't buy an MCE box that would pay $250 for the sling.
