Miro Internet TV Player 1000's of channels for free.

I've just discovered Miro (formerly Democracy Player) there's thousands of channels to choose from all free. There's no additional hardware needed and it's available for both Windows and Linux. You need a decent broadband connection to take full advantage of this. Tip: During set-up the application will ask if you want to start Miro at computer start-up, I suggest you choose No otherwise your connection will be slow for web browsing. You can create you own channel by Making Internet TV yourself.

    That is not TV :angry: ! It's for video RSS feeds, podcasts and video blogs.

    It's own description reads: "Download Miro to watch free internet video channels and play any video file."

    * Technology 616 Channels
    * Arts 613 Channels
    * Music 525 Channels

    You can subscribe to one channel or just download the particular programme that interests you within a channel. I've seen videos and documentaries that I know I would never see on mainstream TV. Miro also has a lovely interface, very easy to use and attractive, makes the whole thing so simple.
