It doesn't let you multi-task like YouTube does, though YouTube is extremely slow.</p>Jason SchrammWed, 21 Feb 2007 01:57:21 -0000http://www.marketingpilgrim.com/2007/02/googles-youtube-losing-viacom-deal-to-joostcom.html#comment-9412151<p>YouTube is already paying enormous amounts for the bandwidth. How's <a href="http://Joost.com" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" title="Joost.com">Joost.com</a> going to be profitable from advertising alone if the content they are going to offer is "full episodes with high-quality resolution"? <br>And then again, how legal it is to distribute full length episodes?</p>Mark TominTue, 20 Feb 2007 21:01:13 -0000http://www.marketingpilgrim.com/2007/02/googles-youtube-losing-viacom-deal-to-joostcom.html#comment-9412150<p>I think this is great. Living outside the US, sometimes there are only certain ways we can watch our favorite TV shows and there is nothing worst than watching a full length episode at youtube quality.</p><p>Been playing around a little with the Joost beta and it looks VERY promising. And if this deal goes ahead I think they will have something VERY special.</p>Dave DavisTue, 20 Feb 2007 09:31:49 -0000
