The Australian reports that executives at Harvey Norman are considering their position on selling the McTivia media streamer, due to concerns over its potentially copyright-infringing promotion of VPN services to access overseas video content.
McTiVia, a new set-top box now on sale in Harvey Norman stores, is looking to take the world of computer screen sharing and VPN geo-location tricks and make them as casual as using any other standard set-top box. With drawcards like easy access to Hulu and Netflix and an easily portable form-factor, McTiVia is hard to ignore.
