Still intended to be free, but obviously biased towards Yahoo content. Might see a few migrations to GBPVR?

I thought Meedio was 'pay-to-play' PVR software after the trial period?
Would like to see the guy who wrote the HDeeTV skin port it to gbpvr. Nice! http://www.meedio.com/maid/screenshots.p...1}&start=1

It looks like the current users of Meedio may be screwed. The EPG data runs out July 1st and the support center has been shutdown, so no official support. I'm glad I use GBPVR

This is sad news. In effect they are discontinuing their product, which was not bad at all - it was very flexible in its architechture. The predecessor MyHTPC, alhough limited, helped start the interest in HTPCs. I am happy to be using one of the survivors in this market, now that Meedio and ShowShifter are gone.
