Joost is a new way of watching TV on the internet. With Joost, you get all the things you love about TV, including a high-quality full-screen picture, hundreds of full-length shows and easy channel-flipping.

You get great internet features too, such as search, chat and instant messaging, built right into the program - so you find shows quickly and talk to your friends while you watch. And with no schedules to worry about, you can watch whatever you want, whenever you like - as often as you want. Joost is completely free, and works with most modern PCs and Intel Mac-based computers with a broadband connection.

With Adobe Premiere (on the PC) and Final Cut Express (on the Apple Mac), movie editing is a game everyone can play. The current rash of free personal music portal sites (e.g. MySpace, BetaRecords, etc.) will surely be followed soon by personalised video portals....

Now you can take Yahoo! off your computer and put it in your living room for everyone to see. View photos, search for video clips and watch movie trailers on your TV. Plus, your own digital video recorder (DVR) lets you record and watch your favorite shows anytime for free.

The basic requirements for this includes a TV Tuner card, broadband connection and some cables to connect your PC and TV.
