Google TV Plex Teaser

Plex are on a role recently, after hearing nothing from them for months in the last week they have released myPlex and new version of the apps. Now Plex have introduced Plex for Google TV, with the app you can do all the usual Plex stuff like streaming media over your network, support for Plex channels and the cloud based myPlex.  The big question is who has a Google TV?

Now – we’ve heard Google TV maligned many times over the past couple weeks. We’ve heard it said that the new Google TV is not newsworthy. I admit I was a bit skeptical at first – but I’m here to tell you that we’ve been impressed with how Plex performs on our demo unit. Now honestly I’ve not played with other apps on the Google TV, BUT if nothing else Google TV is worthy because it makes for a great and very responsive Plex client. Overall we think Google TV offers up one of the best Plex client platforms out there in terms of functionality, speed and cost. It’s an excellent choice for hooking up to that ridiculously large flatscreen in the living room, or the more modest one in the bedroom… But hey – Google TV is inexpensive enough – just get one device for each room!
