Must be some an odd coincidence or something. Just as I finally scribbled something about Joost yesterday, I get an email today telling me about new channels on the aforementioned Internet TV software.
Paramount UK (sorry US readers) now “offers over 30 full-length classic films. Sci-fi's served up with Star Trek IX: Insurrection. There's timeless sophistication with Breakfast at Tiffany's; and tension and thrills with Patriot Games, The Hunt for Red October and Fatal Attraction.” Might I also recommend Shane, The Parallax View and Chinatown?
And Alliance Atlantis now has “Lexx, Total Recall and Earth: Final Conflict”. Incidentally, that's the rather good Blade Runner-esque Total Recall 2070, not the Arnie movie - which I always liked cos of Sharon Stone, but that's me.
Now all I've got to do is find the time to sit in front of a computer to watch all this stuff - an iPod video is a very handy thing, you know...

Hum trying Joost now... once I worked out how to register and how to get that awkward play/control out it is all cool. Just watch the Parralax View.. which is much better than I remember.
I'd be interested to see what other content they get on line for this. Not sure if I'd pay for this though.... . . .

Well, it sure sounds interesting. How long do you have to wait on the beta list before you can get in?

I can't remember. I signed up ages and it took a while. But I hear they've sped up the process now.
