Sling TV App by Dish Network

Dish network just released a pc app as well as for other platforms that allows certain channels for 20 per month. Channel's such as ESPN Disney TNT TBS. You can also add a few channels for a couple bucks more. Was wondering if anyone has tried it yet? Might try it out and I suppose reliance would work to launch it from within Wmc. Not sure if it can be controlled from wmc remote or not. Here is a link to the service I'm talking about. Any opinions? https://www.sling.com/

It would be sweet if someone could find away to interface with it and get it in the guide, and to be able to record them on MC...That would be epic...

There are some tools around here that you can put a link to a website in WMC and run it at full screen. I have used Dishanywhere before and Not sure it would be very remote friendly.
