## About boxee

Boxee was a media center and streaming-device company founded in 2007 and based in New York, with connections to Israel.

The company developed software and hardware that allowed users to watch Internet video on their televisions, integrating social features for sharing and recommending content. Boxee started as a spin-off from the XBMC/Xbox Media Center project and aimed to create a personal television experience by combining Internet video, local media playback, and social networking. The Boxee software platform enabled users to access TV shows, movies, and web content on their TVs, featuring social sharing options linked to platforms like Facebook and Twitter. It also included cloud DVR functionality, allowing users to record broadcast TV and stream it later. Boxee produced media center software, set-top box hardware, and the Boxee TV/Boxee Cloud DVR device, which aggregated online video services and local media into a unified TV interface. The company was acquired by Samsung in 2013 after raising venture funding from various investors.
