As to the fact that the shows it is airing are all older, that is largely because the closer content is to current, the more likely the rights will be closely held by the content owner (especially content that can be sold into syndication and/or DVD) and the *less* likely that content will be permitted onto a free service like Joost. I have Joost! Friends Edition running on Windows Vista (and on older hardware to boot) and am having no problems other than the expected bandwidth issues. I can run it either full-screen or even in a window; as long as I have bandwidth, playback is clean as a whistle. (Considering I'm on the East Coast, and the US Joost server is in Los Angeles, that's darn good.)]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,18286422 Sat, 05 May 2007 15:01:00 EDT Re: Maybe it's just me http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,18286231 Mtav80 :

This is one of those services I'm leery to utilize because I don't want to become reliant on it just to have it become unavailable due to legal or monetary issues.
Isn't Joost founded by the same guys that made Skype then sold it to ebay for an insane amount of money?]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,18286231 Sat, 05 May 2007 14:05:33 EDT Maybe it's just me http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,18286172 cob_ : This is one of those services I'm leery to utilize because I don't want to become reliant on it just to have it become unavailable due to legal or monetary issues.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,18286172 Sat, 05 May 2007 13:50:20 EDT
