Broadcast quality, ludicrously small loading time (literally seconds), full-screen television glory.

Oh, wow. Perfect. I was just looking for a good website so I could start watching Entourage and Heroes this summer. Great find, Shia's Dad.

:thumbsup:

I've decided I'm not going to use this

Watching things on the computer just feels so... off. I love having the dvds and popping them in, going through the seasons, as costly as it is.

The site's been around for a while, but generally it linked to YouTube videos and the like. Only recently has it employed this DivX Web Player thingy.

I'm just astonished. Full screen, download quality streaming videos. I have no idea how it's done, but it's clearly the best thing to happen to the internet in, like, forever.

I feel like a spambot.

Just out of curiosity, what is the state of the legality of this? I'm guessing...no?

It's basically a lot like YouTube, Bernie. Any legal implications would fall on DivX first, then TV-Links, then... nothing.

In short, I think you're safe.

I rarely watch tv online except off legal platforms like iTunes or ABC.com so I'm confused as to how this works. Where do you choose what you watch from and are there alot of shows available? It looks REALLY nice though!!

I watched The Office on there a couple weeks ago.

It took hours to load the whole thing (My internet speed is between dial-up and DSL), but when it did it was perfect. I definitely prefer it to torrents.

Is there a menu or something? How do we choose the shows?

Are you clicking the links? List of all the shows should pop up.

Oh and is the first season of Entourage working for anyone else? It's not for me.

The networks inevitably get around to forcing some of the shows off the internet. As they're not hosted by TV-Links, however, if you mark it as dead they eventually get around to changing the link to a working one. The older the show, the longer it'll take.
