I hadn't heard of ViewMyTV before but I'll have to have a look. However, I wouldn't watch an episode of Lost or Prison Break on Youtube because the quality just isn't good enough for watching a show you like. Thanks for the tip Nabeel.

I don't know what I was expecting.. but I didn't feel very joosted ! Limited channels in beta was probably a factor.. also - internet TVOD has been done before - joost just makes it feel sexier than it is..

Watching the same few bits of 5th Gear tires out quite quickly. While it is a very nice platform technically, the lack of content is really what is stopping it becoming something major.

I can relate to the 5th Gear thing - I must have watched them all and then some! There really isnt any point simply building a fullscreen Youtube (though, when you think about it Youtube updates more!). As an aside nice to see you out and about the blogosphere and hopefully you'll be generating more blog content after the big exams!

Joost seems interesting alright but you need an invitation to sign up. Any chance you can send me one? Internet tv from what ive seen (those programs that let you watch free tv) are a load of rubbish. hopefully joost is different. Thanks, Dave Hi Dave,
