infotainment contents easily which can be pumped directly through their PC-enabled TV
or through other connected or networked PCs at home.

where they can be their own IPTV operator or online DJ by broadcasting selectively or
publicly their latest collection of home videos, photos or their very own unplugged
music versions in real-time.
