Blockbuster and Microsoft Building Live Mesh App
Blockbuster and Microsoft are working on an application that uses the Live Mesh technology to deliver video content on any device. This is probably similar to the BBC application that Microsoft showed off at PDC, which was very impresive. The interesting thing that Live Mesh solves for developers is a way to easily deploy and manage an application accross a variety of devices.
Dallas News spoke with Keith Morrow of Blockbuster, which said “Eventually, we’ll give customers instant access to any movie on any device with an Internet connection and a screen.” Using Silverlight and Live Mesh, I think Blockbuster and Microsoft can build a compelling application.
