Joost is the new TV

I have tried Slingbox and I have tried Democracy TV. Joost is different. Community features, high quality programming, full screen smooth video. It’s a joy, a pleasure. I was captivated for hours as I kept watching show after show with a numbed, retarded expression on my face. The PC is the TV now and I am loving it.
And did I mention how cool the interface is? Check out these screenshots:

Note: click on the images to see the full size. When was the last time you saw free streaming internet video of that resolution? It’s a joy that even my Slingbox doesn’t provide despite a 3MBPs connection at both ends thanks to the low upload bandwidth of ADSL.
Note 2: It’s not yet open to general audience, you need an invite to get started.

    hey idiot, why say it is a 3MBps line if only assymetrical? what is your upstream bandwidth? that is what counts for a slingbox. mine is 1Mbps and it kicks ass.

    Thank you for the kind words Joe. I have never got an upload bandwidth higher than 384kpbs! I envy you for your 1Mbps.
