I give it two weeks before nobody cares about it and it goes to crap like pretty much all the other "good idea at the time" things that happened here. Oh well.

it just seems like kinda of a gimmicky thing

now if there are downloadable divx files or something, that would be more useful

oh

why streaming?

 IceDigger Apr 16, 2003
why not? :smash

Yea, it's not gonna be broadcast live, it's just ummm live streaming.

Streaming is cool for ppl who like it. It's much faster than downloading the whole file waiting till it's done and then watching it!!!!!!!!!!!

If you're on a 56k, maybe. Except then you'd have to live with Realplayer-like quality, and we all know that's an oxymoron right there.

I prefer downloading media files (why does one have broadband, after all), then viewing them in whatever player I choose regardless of whether that player has streaming capability or not. Seems if you want to stream you're limited to either a browser plugin or Windows Media Player. Ack.

Well, one does have broadband, so u can watch streaming with no probs. It's all a matter of opinion. If u don't like streaming media, then simply don't use it. We are working on the 56k version. It's not great quality atm anyway. It may be best to download if you're on 56k, but hey it's all up to u guys. At least the broadband version is working fine. Personally, I would rather stream than download a file and wait to get it then watch it, but again it's all about opinions

you could always offer both (?)

We will be offering both streaming and a downloadable file for those ppl who don't wanna stream. Just sorting out the main SX live page now.
