As you may have read yesterday, Sling Media (my employer) released SlingPlayer for Mac 1.0. The beta version of this software has been available for several months — And since launch we’ve beefed up our staff with several former Apple employees, served up over 80,000 downloads (of .145), and squashed hundreds of bugs.

Our Mac dev team is a permanent fixture here at Sling and will continue to improve performance and add features (as we do with PC and mobile clients).
