The goal of this is to become independent from cable TV while still being able to do all of the same things we would with a cable service – I.E still consume content in the living room on the television.

It should also improve upon the experience. I want to be able to stream content from the Pi to any capable device. That list includes but is not limited to:

1. Windows XP
2. Windows 7
3. Linux Debian
4. Linux Ubuntu
5. iOS 6 (ipad)
6. iOS 5.3 (ipod Touch)
7. OSX and up
8. Android "Gingerbread" and up

I’ll be working on this post most of today, so they’ll be a few posts coming.
