Joost Launched. Did Anyone Notice?
I’ve been testing Joost during the beta, and well, can I just say I’m not that impressed and leave it at that? Does anyone notice ceiling fans when they walk in a room?
The world’s first TV-quality online television network went on display at this week’s MIPCOM audiovisual trade show offering legal, free entertainment and raising questions about what this will mean for the massive TV business.
The network, Joost, launched this month just ahead of a clutch of competitors that include Italy’s Babelgum, offers legal rather than pirated entertainment for free.
“The Internet will start off showing traditional entertainment but eventually users and content creators will use the capabilities of the Internet to create some amazing entertainment,” said Mike Volpi, who heads up Joost.
I’m not sure what it is, but I just can’t get as much done watching Joost as I can when I watch programs through other outlets.
