From their website:

Remember that Magic Box you had always wished for? You know, the one that would finally free your PC of all your favorite movies and shows and put them where you can enjoy them better in all their high-def glory -- your TV?

Well, we'd like to introduce Myka - the Magic Box you've been waiting for. And Myka has brought a powerful friend to the party: BitTorrent, the global standard for delivering high-quality files over the Internet.

Torrentflux is available now for free and would seem an easier solution

Also, there's a good chance this whole company is fake. See:
Myka Box Might be a Scam (http://torrentfreak.com/the-myka-bittorrent-box-a-scam-090118/)

Granted the scam talk is just a rumor right now but the "company" has already taken money without producing any prototype and has also accepted a good number of pre-orders without sending any order confirmations or physical products. Even if the company is for real they seem to have handled their launch quite poorly. Look for the BBB to shut them down soon.
