Conclusion
|
Just one more media centre which will be lost in the mass. Not one we'd particularly recommend then, unless of course you can pick it up for a real bargain. |
This is a media centre stuffed with features and with a particularly good interface. With just a little more work from Western when it brings out the updates, it will improve even further. In the meantime, the WD TV Live Hub has the merit of being easy to use and offering a high quality experience. |
