For a limited time, get Windows 8 Media Center Pack for free

[NyteOwl]

The freebie is available until January 31/2013 and must be installed/activated before that date as well so if you get it in advance, you only have a couple of months to "use it or lose it".

Steven Sinofsky is really retarded

Hmm....Try compatibility mode. IF it is still in Windows 8 that is.....

Honestly I don't know why they have more than 2 versions of Windows anyway.

Got my key....but I am sure that this is an unchanged version of MCE compared to Vista and 7.

For everything else there's XBMC. :D

One thing that MC has that the others don't (or I missed this feature) is a live TV viewing option for tuners. I've got an older ATI card that has win7 compatible drivers, but the viewing app isn't compatible. Win7 Ultimate MC allows me to watch TV on it.

with the MC you can stream from your PC to a Xbox in another room, true the network,

Yesterday I try the Xbox Smart Glass, pretty cool. I can use my 15" touch screen monitor as a Xbox controller, some games will even go more far as display the map on the touch screen, of course from a PC it's not that great, but from a tablet or a Windows Phone I'm sure it'S cool, you don't need MC for it.
