Wanna watch some TV?

(I'll need the e-dress you want to use for signup)

The software download is about 10Mb; apparently Sothis doesn't quite have enough video memory to make it perfectly happy, but it works.

Channels of particular interest:

• Entertainment
  • Alliance Atlantis Sci-Fi
    Currently running Lexx and something I hadn't heard of, Starhunter
  • AXN
    OMG, Starsky & Hutch!
  • ShortsTV
    Short films and behind-the-scenes (paging Mike Jittlov....)
• Cartoons & Animation
  • Aardman Animations
    An all-claymation channel, woohoo!
  • Adult Swim
    Yeah, it's mostly Aqua Teens Hunger Force, but they might put on something different eventually.
  • Transformers
    Yes, Blade, it's a channel for you.
  • Gong
    Anime channel showing stuff I've never heard of so far. :)
• Comedy
  • Spike
    no content yet? Maybe 'add channel'....
  • Funny Bone
    sitcom 'reruns'
  • Heavy Animation
    Snarky cartoons that Adult Swim didn't buy (yet?)
• Most Popular
  (although I'm not sure why I didn't see two of these sorted into the Genre sections)
  • Nickleodeon
    Ren and Stimpy
  • Comedy Central

Yeah, that should get you started. I didn't see the Warner stuff loaded yet, so something to look forward to. This is play-on-demand, so no schedules to bother with!

Now... if they'd only start a Cannell Channel... hmmmm. [looks for newsletter with contact info]

So... does this mean you want an invite? ^_^

Me, or quadgop?
I would, yes. And I learnt about your emoti-san on MSN today. ^_^

Nonono, I'm replying to Qadgop there. :)

[confused] [lightbulb] OH! That one! ^_^

Depending on how this thing works... mmmmaybe....

It seems pretty simple. You download the app, assuming your connexion and PC (uhhh... I didn't notice if they do Mac too yet) are up to spec, do some simple add-self forms and then browse the programming.

There are ads, since it's a free-at-the-moment service; I suspect like some of the other things out there there'll be premium programming and features for a price later. It likes to go on standby rather than a full exit unless you insist on it, but that's no big deal. And they've also got chat and IM widgets, a support forum, etc.
