This is just a Linux server running something like Samba [1] to share files across your local network or the internet. Quite basic stuff. I've had this setup at home for ages, using some old cheap laptops/computers. You can actually replicate this on Windows or Mac natively. Just share a folder. Am I missing the exciting part? -- Edit: for crying out loud, my media-center has a sharing functionality. Which means my media-center does exactly what this Plug thing supposed to do, without all the non-sense proprietary marketing shenanigans. Wake up people. This tech has been around for ages! 1. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Samba_(software) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Samba_(software)
