The Idea

Sorry to steal the brand name (TiVO) for this idea. Just to point this out, though. I use torrents to watch television shows anymore and have my torrent software setup with broadcatching to catch the shows that I have in the list. This is a tedious and not so handy way of doing things. With the release of Joost, I was thinking that there should be some sort of way for future Joost users to put shows in their cue to watch/download.

I thought of this idea when I was...

Thinking about how the evolution of television is moving towards online shows. Joost has been released and more and more major networks are releasing shows to be viewed on the Internet.
