[QUOTE="reagan+carter, post: 103972, member: 24635"] Every piece of program could be considered as a simple beta over its whole lifespan. Just a matter of point of view. After 2 years of development, I wouldn't call a product beta anymore. However back to the topic: I think the main reason Hauppauge won't include Mediaportal in their bundle CDs is simply because they have money agreements with third-tier software companies. Who gets OpenOffice pre-installed with his brand new shinning PC? Why is there always a Microsoft Windows bundled with a new PC sold? Business agreements. Finding partnerships for Mediaportal would be a tremendous and time-consuming challenge. No open source software of this size can afford that. Just my opinion. [/QUOTE]
