Looks like they have a license agreement with Paramount. Also has partnered with Adobe. Pretty good!

I signed up, put QVC on and compared it with QVC on my Sony 1080p LCD HDTV. Got to admit, the picture quality on my PC looked just as good.
Like the full screen as well.

Good instructions for sign up on your review. It was very easy to sign up and check it out.

Pretty cool but in no way is this even close to as good as my TV/Sat setup. They don't have many channels yet but the GUI structure is pretty good, there is potential here. This could be good when traveling and staying at a hotel with broadband access.

I'm with you on that one Dela! There are some people who specifically look for things to complain about just because they can't be happy & feel everyone else has to be just like them...

I have been testing Zap for months. When this hits the public it will be the new paradighm in the way we watch TV. Try dragging your Sat dish with you when your on the road or in the park. It will be interactive, have VOD, DVR, PIP all your favotites (A&E,TNT,TBS,etc) on one platform. The time for going into your living room and turning on your TV and grabbing the remote is over. We have been doing that for over 50 years. This is the new wave take your media with you anyplace in the world on any device with a screen. Chat or tweet with your buds while watching Bones or Law & Order. Whip out your iPhone and catch that episode of Leverage you missed last week. Paramount is already on board, agreements with FOX, MTV, Disney are all pending. Behold the future is upon you it's time to get "with the program".
