Avermedia today showed off their beta SnugTV service, which allows groups of friends (who naturally own Avermedia TV tuners) to stream each others LiveTV feed over the Internet. Internationally."</em></p><p><img src="http://images.thoughtsmedia.com/resizer/thumbs/size/600/wpt/auto/1263045379.usr11334.jpg" style="border: 0;" /></p><p>AverMedia were showing off their beta SnugTV service at CES 2010, which allows you to stream your live TV to your friends over the internet. We Got Served used the following example to explain how it works and as they did it so well I will post it here: <em>"Brits? Frustrated that you won't see the new season of Chuck for months (and even then it'll go to a niche cable channel)? Forget Usenet. Who needs Bittorrent? Simply find a mate in the US with an Avermedia TV Tuner, both sign up for the free Snug TV service and you can watch it live over the web in Blighty as NBC broadcast it in the USA." </em>I'm not sure where TV broadcasting rights come in to the legality of this product, but I do like the idea of being able to at least use it personally to get my TV shows when I am stuck in a hotel room due to work.<em> </em></p>
