Free Cable Broadcast? 2003-12-19 03:22:35 Reply

My friend steve aka fadeitsun just set up something with divx which allows him to stream televsion through his website at www.hatethis.8k.com

Its no completly set up yet, but I sampled it, it worked well, but I have 56k, I think this streaming television could be a great thing, but one problem remains, the technicalities.

People will try to say your ripping off the cable/sattilite companies, but your really not, its just a link to his television online, think of it as wormhole to his room.

What do you think?


I can do t3h voices. Lots of em.LOTS OF THEM!! ^^;;
