Twonky Version Upgrade for WD Network Drives

[#1]

WD please upgrade your firmware on your Network Drives to include the FREE ! Upgrade offered by Twonky for version 5 users to use version 6 for FREE !

Other NAS suppliers such as QNAP did this a couple of years ago (see link)

This seems to be a Hot topic for allot of WD NAS owners and we are not getting any reasonable answers out of WD.

I notice the WD team put this Twonky upgrade idea straight to Unplanned status so no one can add further comments or give Kudos.

WD need to provide a full explanation on why we can't have the free Twonky upgrade when other NAS suppliers can supply it?

WDTony please don't change this to unplanned and please provide us with a real answer on where the Media Server software is headed for the current WD NAS products.

Thanks for listening.

Please upgrade Twonky

Yes Update the Twonky.

Couldn't agree more! I just got a 2TB MBL over the hols and can't believe the old version of twonky. What's worse is it seems people have been asking for this upgrade for a looooong time. Had I known about this in advance I would've looked at a diff product than WD. I'll be sure to warn people who are considering such a purchase about this..... So cone on WD, get it done!

Ditto.

[#6]

Would make very much sense

[#7]

Couldn't agree more! This is a huge drawback. So many of my friends and colleagues are not buying the WD network drive because of this issue. Sales of this drive will sky rocket with a simple upgrade.

I have the New Twonky works on my PC. MKV is now Play on my Samsung TV. Please Update the Twonky.

Please upgrade this. I have 2 3TB my book live sitting here waiting for an upgrade.

Yes, please upgrade this.  So many devices and applications now require Twonky 6 (such as Airplay on iOS 5).  It's a real hinderance to be stuck with the old version.  Really hoping this happens soon.
