HDTV and Home Theater Podcast - Podcast #417: ZVOX 575 Single-Cabinet Surround Sound System

By The HT Guys • Mar 19, 5:21am

We understand that many of our listeners don't have the space for a full blown home theater system. However, those same listeners don't necessarily want to listen to their movies through the TVs tiny speakers. For them a single unit solution is what the doctor ordered.

Rumors surfaced earlier this week, but it has been confirmed by official press release that Wal-mart is planning to acquire Vudu, a pioneer in the instant movie service market.
