This service enables users running Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005 to remotely schedule TV shows to record on their Media Center Edition-based PCs. Note: This beta is for US and Canada MCE users only. To officially join the MSN Remote Record Service Beta, here are the instructions to sign up via Beta Place..."</i><br /><br />If you're an MCE user, this is good news - I have to admit though that I'm rather skeptical of how well this will work with MSN involved. When I think of MSN, I think of slightly dysfunctional, confusing Web pages with far too many advertisements. By way of contrast, SnapStream has an awesome solution in place that lets me log into an ad-free server and program in all the shows I want - for free. And I can even do it from my Pocket PC or Smartphone! MSN has a high bar to reach. :D
