There’s a certain group of people who NEVER settle for less. They have expectations from their technology. These people are Macintosh users, but what does this have to do with TV? Well, it seems like a big part of Apple’s turnaround in recent years really started with the iPod. Apple brilliantly filled a need that existed in the marketplace for users to take control of their entertainment experiences. You don’t need to listen to the radio and hope that a couple songs you like just happen to come on when you have an entire library of music in the palm of your hand, right?. Again, what does this have to do with TV you may be wondering? There’s a new piece of software exclusively for Macs that brings together the Mac user’s yearning for a better way, and also offers a solution to the typical brain-drain that occurs when we sit watching garbage on TV for hours. MacTV Pro is an intuitive piece of software with an easy-to-use interface (Would you expect anything less on a Mac?) which allows users to tap into literally thousands of live TV channels from all around the world. If we were talking about a PC program, the feature list would likely stop right here. But we’re not talking about a PC program, we’re talking about Mac, where “good enough” simply isn’t good enough. With MacTV Pro, you have an incredible selection of channels and they have all been sorted into categories so it is easy to find something interesting to watch. Not only that, but you can make a list of your favorite channels for easy-access. MacTV Pro is also portable, unlike typical cable TV services that, not unlike a pet rock, just kind of sit there. If you have a Macbook, you can take MacTV Pro with you anywhere. You can watch TV laying in bed, on the bus, anywhere that you have Internet access. Thanks to wifi, the Internet is now a lot more accessible than cable TV, so MacTV Pro opens up a lot of doors to places where you can now enjoy live TV. Not only that, but it comes with instructions that will show you how to connect MacTV Pro to your television set, effectively replacing your need for cable TV all-together.
MacTV Pro has the style and functionality that the world has come to expect from anything relating to Apple. The one aspect of MacTV Pro that may catch die hard Mac users off-guard is the price tag, as they’re often used to paying a premium in order to get the best. MacTV Pro is a one-time purchase, not a monthly fee. The launch price of MacTV Pro was announced at less than the price of just one month of cable TV service, making this a smart choice for Mac users and yet another notch in the long list of things PC users wish they had.
