Having looked at the channel list of a hundred channels of sh!te.

I've got joost beta (which now includes friends invites) but with the channel list provided I just havn't bothered installing it.

I'll send you a friends invtite so you can give it a go

It's good technology (peer to peer streaming TV), but at the moment there's not enough content to make it that interesting. Will be good to see what buy-in they get from content providers down the line though.

Channnels list is one thing and network connection is another. Minimum requirements are: 1Mbts up and 500Kbts down - not exactly ADSL usual specs.
I have 2,5Mbts symmetrical connection, and even there it does not work very well. Besides its buggy, very buggy.

Yep, its quite jumpy when watching it which isn't too good.

After playing with it, then only highlight I've seen yet is re-runs of Lexx.
