I should do a vlog about how the rest of the world is so f*ing BORED of
hearing about the Super Bowl - and all the ads which seem to be the entire
point these days. At least we (ROW) have the courtesy to hold the World Cup
only once in four years.

heh. No offense taken, D. :) I understand what you're saying, and I
think an anti-super-bowl vlog would be interesting. All the teams in
the NFL are in the USA, so there's really no reason that anyone else
should be interested in it. Also, the ads have been the point for
quite a while.
Well my stars, thanks for the kind words!

Those are all good ideas.
I think you have to consider hobbyist or non-commercial videoblogging
like public access television. The way public access used to work
here, and probably still does, is that you apply for a show, you get a
time slot, you make your show, you bring it in on VHS, and at

decides to take the leap into more mainstream / oldstream distribution,

Rudy and I have always wanted to do something different from the norm,
so today we launched a unique sponsorship programme. Depending on how
much someone donates, they are given credit as a Galacticast crew
member on our site:
$5- Best Boy
$10- Foley Artist
$25- Caterer
$50-
Thanks, Josh. Interesting - I just read some reviews online and
people were complaining that the new Elgato interface is clunkier
than the previous one, and subsequently not nearly as good as Tivo or
Sky+. And that there were problems switching between it and Front
Row/Apple TV. Sigh.

Yeah it should be technically possible, because free encoding systems

You mean how long to boot the OS? If so, I can tell you it's not any longer
for a Media Center than regular XP, at least in my experience. I have a
machine running vista, and a few running media ctr and XP. Not a noticeable
diff between media ctr and xp.

It's about the dissapearance of media gatekeepers. About not having
