 SAN JOSE, Calif. (AP) - The NHL has partnered with Sling Media Inc. for its upcoming video clip-sharing service, signaling a professional sports league's support for an emerging technology that has some media companies on edge.
Sling is the maker of the Slingbox device, which lets users relay television shows from their own living room TVs or digital video recorders to any Internet-connected computer, and some Web-enabled cell phones.
Sling's "Clip+Sling" service, slated to launch later this summer, promises even more flexibility by letting Slingbox users grab short segments from live or recorded television shows and post them on Sling's Internet site for others to view.
