I would wait and see how www.joost.com will do WRT TV content on a PC.

Yeah, but being an audiophile and videophile, I loathe the "You-tube" lo-fi quality of videos and the accompanied audio these days. Marginally acceptable if you have a 320x200 screen. But on an 1900x1200 screen, it, in a word, sucks.

However, Joost looks promising, but I'll have to see it to believe it. One thing I detest is artifacts and pixelation which is a notorious affair with internet video.
