Ever wished you could enjoy the music, videos, and pictures on your home PC while you're away? Now you can. Windows 7 introduces Remote Media Streaming, which provides easy access to your Windows Media Player 12 library over the Internet.

Remote Media Streaming

To use Remote Media Streaming, both computers must be running Windows 7. Turn it on using the new Stream menu in Windows Media Player 12, and then associate both computers with an online ID, such as a Windows Live ID.

Remote Media Streaming is just one of the ways Windows 7 helps you enjoying your media library even if you're not in front of the PC. If you have a HomeGroup oo, it's easy to stream media between your home PCs. You can also stream to your stereo or TV using Play To oo (additional hardware might be required).
