    Of course some things are free, it all depends on their business model. They have Creative, Sprint and Hauppauge listed as partners, all companies that would probably be interested in building Orb's technology into their own products. So although the user software is free, they probably mke their money on licensing.

    EDIT: Also if you are interested in this kind of thing, there is also http://www.videolan.org/streaming/ a free and open source app that aims at doeing this kind of thing too. I don't think it supports a huge number of portable devices, but it is definitely possible in the future

    I've used this before and think its great. Couldn't get it to stream live TV, but I think it doesn't support my TV Card.

    Was really good for streaming music and videos.
