Are you thinking about building a new Home Theater Personal Computer (HTPC) ? Check out the eHomeUpgrade review of SnapStream Beyond TV 4 here. BeyondTV is a wonderful alternative to Microsoft Windows Media Center – plus it’s cheaper! However, it’s not nearly a complete solution like MCE is for an HTPC system. In any case, here’s the verdict:

If you’re currently considering building your own HTPC, I would highly recommend Beyond TV 4 for your TV recording functionality. With features like SmartSkip and the very helpful ShowSqueeze, SnapStream has integrated features that help Beyond TV stand-out from the crowd. Excellent performance and strong customization options make Beyond TV 4 a worthy investment. Support for OTA HDTV tuners and more than 2 standard tuners rounds out an impressive package. SnapStream has a lot to be proud of in their latest release; let’s hope that future versions show equal amounts of promise delivered.
