Yet another set top box, the WDTV Live distinguishes itself with Spotify integration
It’s hard to believe that you don’t already have a device in your home (or your pocket) that’s capable of connecting to Spotify, but should your kids be getting sick of you stealing their iPod Touches to stream your Dad Rock, then you might want to spring for Western Digital’s new WDTV Live Streaming player.
The tiny box comes without storage, and is meant just for streaming (hence the name). Plug it into the power and to an HDMI-ready screen and you can stream Netflix and Spotify, as well as Hulu Plus, YouTube, Blockbuster and more. It also has a couple of USB ports so you can hook up a hard drive, or pull in photos from a camera.
To use Spotify you’ll have to be a paying member. You can do all of the usual Spotify stuff: sharing tracks, making playlists, and forcing visitors to listen to the soundtrack of your youth.
The new box joins the WDTV lineup and comes in at just $100. Your kids will thank you for it.
