JOOST beta testing

I have been selected for the joost beta program (that maybe not the best thing since I have to finish my thesis!), a way of watching TV on the internet.
It looks like a very interesting idea of watching video and tv programs. Some materials look a bit like youtube stuff but most are real programs.
The idea is very challenging but for the moment I am not really impressed. The choice of channels is limited and the interface, though it looks very cool, is a bit confusing. Probably the best achievements is the quality of the video - and, thanks to the P2P infrastructure, you don't have to wait for downloads!
But in general I don't like TV..

I have to admit I only gave it a quick look, so more on this in the next days.
