The #Slingbox is no more. It was an interesting lateral thinking-type product that met a clear need and created numerous angles for analysts to consider.
It challenged the arbitrary and archaic content restrictions at the time and arguably hastened the arrival of official #tv anywhere apps from media companies with better windowing. It was a bit geeky, but it worked.
But I think of this more as a retirement after years of steady work, rather than a product death.

@acedtect Look into slinger if you want to continue using your old Slingbox streaming hardware.

Also, the /r/slingbox subreddit is active with folks continuing to use the hardware.

Slingboxes, streaming video way before it was cool, go dark tomorrow, Wednesday, November 9.
The service was nearly 17 years old.
The device that brought web-streaming TV to the masses will lose cloud support.
