Yahoo Announces Free DVR Software

Apparently, the only way to make a splash on the Internet these days is to take something that costs money and give it away for free. Google did it with Google Analytics (which used to be Urchin and was not cheap) and now Yahoo has done it with Yahoo! Go TV (which used to be Meedio and was not free). Yahoo Go TV is basically free DVR software for your Windows computer that also has a number of media management functions built in — very similar to Windows XP Media Center Edition in many ways.

Yahoo Go TV will run on most Windows based computers, but to take advantage of the DVR functions you will need to have a TV tuner card installed in your computer. I don’t have a TV tuner card in my computer (yet) but hey, it’s free and I’m definitely going to be downloading and installing the beta.
