Beyond Media

Here is a free trial of SnapStream's Window Media Like interface.
http://www.snapstream.com/Download/b...ia/default.asp

What it basically does is give your desktop a new look and access to:

Beyond Media is a DVD Player. It's a music player.
It's a photo browser. It's an all-in-one media player that will revolutionize your ordinary PC and turn it into a 21st century home entertainment system!

Beyond Media gives you …

All your media players in one easy-to-use program and interface
Not just an ordinary DVD player, but a music, photos and video player
Instant access to movies on-demand with SnapStream Spotlight
Weather information and Caller ID

Beyond Media lets you…

Turn an ordinary PC into a media center PC
Have fun with photo slideshows – zoom, pan and rotate photos, play slideshow to music
Sort and browse your media by genre, title, artist and keyword
Easily navigate its full-screen interface with Firefly PC Remote

Not my cup of tea since I already have apps that do all of this stuff, and I do not need a proggy running in the background like this.

But they sent me an email on this, so I thought I would pass it on for anyone wanting to test it out.

This is what your desktop would look like with it running, complete with a Start button.

Pretty neat, it would work well for incar PC application with a touchscreen

There was something similar I played with that was free last year called myHTPC, I'm sure a google search would find you all kinds of information on it if anyone is interested
