Essentrics streaming?

Wow...this is going to be a dumb question but here goes...if I just want to workout in front of my laptop can I stream Essentrics? I don't need any special thingie?

I just did Class of 2012 and really liked it. I was thinking it would be a low key workout but I was sweating and really enjoying it. I think I'd love to try other stuff before purchasing more so was thinking of streaming for a month.

Thank you!!! And sorry for the dumb question.

Not a dumb question, some streaming sites require special players (but usually software). I streamed classical stretch/essentrics for a month and it played on any device with an internet connection and web browser. Kind of like youtube but you have to sign in first.

I stream it right on my laptop. I've even streamed it on my crappy old smartphone while on vacation. I've also used my son's iPad and even his Wii (although he has no idea!)...

If you do ever want to watch it on your TV, you can use a Chromecast. I just signed up for the streaming. I am doing the bootcamp that was listed in another thread. If you have slow internet (less than 10 mbps), you will want to downgrade the resolution. It still looks OK. My boyfriend lives in the country and has a little less than 10 mbps. It was choppy until I lowered the resolution. The control is right in the player so it is easy to do.
