So, what do I think about the Theater+? Well, I have to say that I like it for the most part. I do wish that Seagate would introduce a version with a TV tuner though. This addition [with a FreeAgent | GO Drive] would turn the Theater+ into a small easy...
Seagate ha pensato di offrire agli utenti home un prodotto che fosse facile da utilizzare e allo stesso tempo completo sia nella dotazione di uscite sia nel supporto dei formati di file video, audio e immagine. Sotto questi punti di vista dobbiamo amme...
Seagate entra nel mondo dell’home theater con un ottimo prodotto, esteticamente gradevole ma soprattutto molto funzionale. Il Free Agent Theater si dimostra ricco di funzioni e semplice da usare e anche l’utente meno esperto riuscirà a muoversi nei var...

Support for a wide range of video formats, Network access via LAN or USB WiFi adapter, Great integration with FreeAgent Go, HDMI and optical audio
Menu interface is a little too minimalist, Slow performance when first reading USB drives, Internet features are underwhelming, Slightly more expensive than equivalent competitors
I Can’t See the Sounds The good news? You can use the provided remote control to adjust the volume without having to reach for the remote to your home audio system or your television. The bad news? The on-screen display for showing your current vol...
Network streaming works well, good integration with FreeAgent hard drives
No integrated Wi-Fi, bland interface, no front panel controls
If you already have a FreeAgent Go portable hard drive, the Seagate FreeAgent Theater+ media streamer is a good accompaniment. For other users it’s still a reasonable choice but it loses its competitive edge. ...

Media playback device that plays music, image, and video files from USB storage or streamed via network; HD output up to 1080p; integrated slot for FreeAgent Go storage drive; compact, stylish design; you can connect up to two mass USB storage devices-...
No built-in Wi-Fi (wireless option costs an extra $70); Internet services are limited at launch.
The addition of HDMI output, network streaming, and improved file compatibility makes the Seagate FreeAgent Theater+ media player a better value than its predecessor. Read full review See all prices
Supports a large number of file formats, including plenty for high definition content, DVD folder and DVD ISO playback worked very well, HDMI output, Networkable (wired connection built in, pending support for USB wireless adapters), Easily discovered and accessed networked computers and NAS devices, Sleek, minimalistic aesthetics, User interface is very easy to navigate
Internet applications aren't overly exciting (for now, hopefully choices will improve), User interface actually seems like a step backwards from original FreeAgent Theater, Overall appearance is bland, File browsing, photo viewer, and music player are somewhat crude, Device can be slow to respond to remote control commands, Didn't play every file that seemed to be supported, No HDMI cable include
With the features added to the FreeAgent Theater+, Seagate is much closer to the device I was hoping to see when they first announced the launch of the FreeAgent Theater earlier this year. Taking a look back at the conclusion for the review of the ori...
