I'm surprised it has taken this long for the secret to leak out.. I have been using it (and sopcast) for quite a while now.

A very good source of HD content for streaming to your currently pretty pointless HD tv

Forget your disk format war.. this is the future.

I linked this to the qtrax non starter.. people should be aware that it's not the business model which makes the most noise that is most successful.. If you haven't heard of this system before check it out, and forget those qtrax drm people.
