Hmm, I've started to dislike skype cause of their proprietary formats, and I
think the same will probably be true for Joost. At the end of the day it's
just IPTV rebranded, and with the Xbox 360 about to get IPTV (Microsoft have
joined up with all the major US & UK companies to get broadcasters), I think
this will probably be the way internet TV will go.

AFAIK people have already begun experimenting with IPTV, as some local
providers are now offering it along with other services (phone, internet
etc..)
