Thread: Remote Media Streaming in windows 7

For consumers and small businesses, Remote Media Streaming in Windows 7 extends the media sharing abilities of Homegroup- which links Windows 7 PCs in a home to share media to the outside world.

Remote Media Streaming "allows you to take media sharing on the go," says Jeff Price, Microsoft's senior director of Windows product management. That means making a media library full of songs and photos that people previously could access only on their home network accessible anywhere there is a Wi-Fi connection.

"Whether in the home or remotely you get the same access to media. I think this feature will be a lot of fun for people," says Price.
