Ah, sweet. Maybe I'll try it out, rather than just waiting for the next day and downloading it. Or maybe not. :)

There software's always crap, because they want to build DRM into it, or limit you to a tiny window. Either that or they restrict you to Apple, or Real which again...crap. Plus the streams are only available to Americans. If I want it streamed I'll wait a day or two to get it from a linking site.

And they never think about people with slow connections who can't view streaming...

[prydain]

They should start doing it YouTube style.

The problem is that no one these days realizes that not everyone has lighting fast cable internet. So they design these big ass websites with all this junk on it that doesn't load and you can't even find what it was you came to the site for.

Perhaps they do it intentionally so people will pay out of the ass (pardon the French) for faster Internet. *shrug* Sounds like something an evil corporation would do to me! :D
