Vista Media Center vs TheVeniceProject

Well obviously these too are direct compatitores. Seeing some examples from CES I'm starting to think that TheVeniceProject is not really that great. If doesn't have the Sport chanels thing for example, that's when you can view info on other games, players bio etc. Obviously DirectX9 GUI won't beat the oh so cool Aero GUI..
Well yes TVP is extandable and it's not finished yet, but hey..it won't be bundled on millions of PCs all over the world and I really don't think that it can reach the Flash effect when everybody goes and download it.

So now that I think about it, I don't really see how TheVeniceProject is going to grow. The only way I see is a couple of good deals with good content owners and a good pricing policy maybe. But fighting with MS is tough, I think. Well, there were others VoIP solutions when SKYPE was starter, so maybe this time these guys can do a miracle again!

In the end, it looks like it all we come down to content. So I guess the time when the content owners will play the game and not the tech guys is pretty near...
