I see they have opened it up to unlimited invites. Any CPF'ers that are beta testers want to throw me an invite?

As of right now, it is limiting me to three invites. I have sent invites to the three PMs that I received. If you would still like one, PM me and I will add you to a list for when I get more.

Cheers to mccavazos!! Thank you for your invite. Just tried Joost and it looks like there is a lot of potential in this medium. I'll pass on any invites I receive to members of this great forum :rock:

It really is a great program, I have had quite a bit of fun with it. I hope that it gets more channel support (crossing fingers for Discovery Channel). I am using it on OSX what is everyone else using?

After just using it for a few minutes, i'm actually surprised by how well it works! They need to do a little more to bump up the picture quality. After a scene change, it is very smoothed and blurry, then after a few moments, it snaps back to higher detail. Probably some sort of divx compression. If they can bump up the throughput and get some more content, I think it'll be really neat. If they offered the service for free, then say a fee for primary networks such as scifi, discovery, etc. Pay per network. I'd pay to be able to watch a few specific networks if they can get the resolution slightly better. :)

I still have invites left if anyone else is interested in trying Joost out. Anybody have any feedback on how they like this new service?
