The digital media hub is a set-top box that is marketed under many different names. Gotta love free enterprise! See

Hub or Server
Products with the following descriptions may also be "digital media servers" as well as digital media hubs. A media server may provide all the functions of a media hub but in order to be a "server," it must have local storage for content. The media is typically copied onto the server's hard drive or solid state drive (SSD) from a USB drive, external drive or from a PC or Mac via the home network. See
digital media server.
