Topic: Valve announces SteamOS

[Morari]

I probably will put together some videos. With only 300 of them being thrown into the wild, I'm sure I can garner some interest on The Interwebz(tm). Sadly, the controller itself is still of the "prototype" variety. It's my understanding that it will be lacking the center touchscreen and wireless capabilities.

Valve's Anna Sweet made the revelation at Valve's Steam Dev Days event in Seattle on Wednesday, according to several Twitter posts from attendees.

As it stands, the open-beta version of SteamOS - the operating system that will power Valve's TV-focused Steam Machine console/PC hybrids - simply allows users to play Steam games, falling drastically short of the multimedia capabilities of Sony and Microsoft's consoles.

But, according to Sweet, Valve aims to have movies, TV and music integrated into the system before its final public launch.

Does that mean they want Apps for Netflix, Hulu, Amazon, Pandora, Etc Etc added before launch
or do they mean that they are also getting into the digital film, TV and music distribution business?

I hope they officially bring Netflix to Linux and fix the Amazon MP3 download issue.
