check this.

It works like a bittorent but it used to broadcast streaming
content. The software is quite new. But I woudnt be suprised
if soon there would be much more channels available.
Allready you can HBO and ESPN very nicely. LIVE.

Fucking basterd Aesthetics, dont ask before you think,
bitch.

more info,

Live streaming could be more interesting due to the vast
availability of TV programs. You only need a TV card and off
you go. CoolStreaming (http://coolstreaming.org/) is an
example, which has proved that it is possible to serve a
500Kbps live stream to thousands of users with a modest PC
and several Mbps uplink bandwidth. If you read the paper
about it
(http://www.cs.sfu.ca/~jcliu/Papers/CoolStreaming.pdf),
you'll find out that its idea of data-driven overlay is very
similar to BitTorrent, probably inspired by BT.

It quite good if you are into sports so you can watch shit
live.

The italian game shows are worth a look or the nutty
japanese tv is usually 'madcore'

Italian tv, in my experience, is a lovely glimpse of the
present where the political correctness of the 80s had been
bypassed. It's lovely ladies, in see through dinner dresses
acting as the foils to hideous, aged men making awful jokes,
AND IT RULES. I used to be able to watch this Spanish TV
station and they had some pretty MadKore tv games which
crossed a fairly standard Noel's House Party appearance with
live bulls and potential drownings.

Exactly! Why, oh why, can't this daft PC thing be
overturned? I used to love drying my hair infront of the
fire in my pyjamas watching ridiculously sexist tv. I wish
I was 12 again.

I always carry this sense that things will return to those
happy days, sitting in front of the fire and the telly in
your jimjams, hoping the "old chap" didn't pop out and cause
derision from your brother, stifling a stiffy during a
nanosecond shot of bosoms in The Sweeney or The
Professionals, and then I realised that, maybe when I'm
elderly, and my brain, through years of alcohol abuse, is
dulled and muddled, that I'll be sitting, gurning in some
old folks home, in my jimjams, nob out for all to see, and
perhaps for a brief moment, the ghastly strobing that'll be
pumping out of the telly of pnuematic teenagers miming
covers to classic pop songs will transform in my addled
imagination into the gilded image of Benny Hill's Hill's
Angels gyrating to a Kiki Dee song.... and then I'll just
die, happy, deluded, but happy.
