internet tv

Announcing a new platform for internet television and video. Anyone can broadcast full-screen video to thousands of people at virtually no cost, using BitTorrent technology. Viewers get intuitive, elegant software to subscribe to channels, watch video, and organize their video library. The project is non-profit, open source, and built on open standards. Today we're announcing the project and releasing our current sourcecode. The software is launching in June.

Update: This appears to be a TorrentCast (they call it a blogtorrent) - ie a site which uses RSS enclosures to push .torrent files which are automatically loaded by your BT client.


Hmm. Potentially interesting delivery method for Maggots, if I ever get around to (a) finishing the third draft and (b) getting the money together to make it properly. Not that I think the FTO would approve of funding (c) a horror movie which is then (d) given away for free.

a + b + c + d = not bloody likely.
