Our friends at the Home System Integration site have posted an interesting article on My Movies – you should check it out.

The Home System Integration site is a new kid on the block (welcome guys!).

They have done a very good article on My Movies which is, in my opinion, a must have addition to any Windows Home Server and Media Center, which as you will read, is Tom’s opinion too.

Here is the start of Tom’s article:

My Movies was created by a company based out of Århus, Denmark called Binnerup Consult headed up by none other than Brian Binnerup.  Originally started a sa spare time project known as “My DVD Collection” for Media Center 2004, this program (or “Add-in” in Windows Home Server speak) has become over time one of the “must have” Add-ins for WSH.   The really great thing?  This program is, for a good portion of the features, free!  Yes, you can get all of the actual programs for free!  The more advanced features within those programs require a number of points on your account, which you have the choice of accumulating either by purchasing them or by contributing meta-data to the services.  The company will even start you out with the maximum 2500 points for 21 days so that you can experience the product in its entirety, all you have to do as ask for a trail!  More information about that can be found here.

Assuming you are running a Windows Home Server, My Movies comes in three separate pieces at a minimum:

  • My Movies for Windows Media Center
  • My Movies Collection Management
  • My Movies for Windows Home Server

Here is the key point from the article:

Here’s the point people:  if you are running a Windows OS centric home, you have a Windows Home Server, and want to have the richest movie management / watching experience for your HDTV I’ve found so far in the Windows Media Center / Windows Home Server world….

And I look forward to more great articles in the future from the guys.

  1. Thanks for the review Andrew! You did a great job summarizing and hopefully will entice your readers to stop by for the full article! Much appreciated! Tom

  2. The answer to the question in the title, in my opinion, is "Yes".

    Of course, everyone has their own reason for using a WHS, but My Movies is My Reason. I love it.
