Hi! I am trying to figure out what Kevin and Veronica are mentioning when they suggest a service called "wholo" to watch internet television? I have heard Kevin Rose and Veronica mention this service in an episode of diggation and in the latest episode of Tekzilla. Can someone please clear up the spelling of it, I would really like to trial this service.
Thanks

Thanks therage800, exactly what I was looking for.
Shame that it's US-only... looks pretty good.

it's not just pretty good, it's friggin sweet. Too bad bittorrent is always one step ahead of MSM though; hulu recently got a lot of shows in 480p, right when a lot of shows started hitting BT in 720p.

It doesn't have to be U.S only. (http://anchorfree.com/hotspot-shield/)

That doesn't work on 64 bit operating systems...

The UK is soon to get a similar service called Project Kangaroo (but is supposedly meant to launch as See-Saw). It's a mix between BBC iPlayer, ITV Catchup, 4OD and Demand Five. I think it won't be long until Sky and others get in on it either. So that's something to watch for others in the UK.

Change your OS. 64bit offers no advantage in the home user sector last i checked. Purely server based.

I can't comment. But this sounds like a great question for the show, *emails tekzilla*.

Especially with Vista and/or with more than 2gb of ram, even in the home 64 bit is more efficient.
