Media Center Streaming coming?

From BetaNews, a report that Microsoft is testing a software add-on to the Media Center to allow streaming of programming to mobile devices and laptops.

If it can watch copy protected material -- that would rock. Otherwise, this is marginally better than the file share technique I use now from other PCs in the house. I don't have a mobile phone which would play any content like this (nor any time to play it), so that feature isn't useful for me. I'm sure other people might find that useful ....

You can already stream media to remote devices such as PDAs, PocketPCs, SmartPhones, and laptops, all you need is the software called Orb, it does movies and music among other things. Pretty spiffy little addition to any mediaphile's collection.

I'll check it out. Thanks for the tip.
