Re: [WIN8] Windows 8 - best to pass it up: review Read more: htDid an Upgrade Install of WIndows 8 to start with, eventually will do a fresh clean install of Windows 8, but NO Problems, Performance is Excellent, All programs work great
Very Happy with Windows 8 Pro with Media Center Start Screen does not bother me
Came from Windows 7 64bit been using it daily since the 26th, Not a single issue with crashing or problems at all, Very Fluid Response, Start screen is not a problem, hot corners easily accessible with a mouse just fine. Built in Windows Defender working great for protection, if I should decide to switch back to Avast when Avast 8.0 comes out and it's stable, then I may do clean install then, but for now happy
Does anyone else with WIndows 8 Media Center have Internet TV or ability to burn Cd/dvd's right from Media Center--mine is missing those options |

I would think the same would be true in Windows 8. See this thread for more info » [WIN7] September 20th Internet TV in WMC ceases--Brian |

Brian is correct, Internet TV is not longer available with any version of Windows Media Center. |

I forgot when Media Center lost some specific features. However, even when you could burn disc of recorded TV easily it could only be done with mpeg not H.264 / AVCHD based recordings.
Many of my recordings are H.264 / AVCHD and are DRM free. |

Not sure at this point and time when I may do a clean install of WIndows 8 in the future, Debating as well if I need HP Recovery Paritiion anymore as well.
Otherwise running great even if was in-place upgrade for now |
