MY-IPTV Anywhere provides an inexpensive solution for catching the shows you want, on your home channels, when you’re not home. The software allows you to deliver your home or local TV programs to anywhere in the world as long as you have broadband internet access (like Slingbox and Sony’s Location Free TV).

TV programs are delivered to you using MY-IPTV Anywhere’s built-in MPEG-4, H.264 software compression technology. Soon you will also be able to pause, rewind and play live TV programs utilizing MY-IPTV Anywhere’s PVR function. Once you have registered with honestech’s online membership, connection to your home PC and local TV programs is just a click away. The connection is peer to peer so you can be assured of a secure connection. You can also burn recorded TV programs onto a DVD.

The product sells online for an average of $130, which is about $50 less than Sling Media charges for its comparable Slingbox Tuner hardware. Other place-shifting hardware for viewing TV remotely—such as Monsoon Multimedia’s HAVA Wireless HD and Pinnacle’s PCTV To Go—are even more expensive, at $250.

My-IPTV can’t do all the things that high-end place-shifting hardware can. But if you want a cheap way to watch your favorite midday soap opera and to keep tabs on Fido as he sleeps on your living-room floor while you are in a remote location, My-IPTV & Cam Anywhere is a great option.
