The Democracy Player is a freeware media player which has the potential to really blow the whole online television concept wide open. It’s open source, built totally on standard technology, has a great feature set (including 600 preset channels) and can download BitTorrent files as well as standard video podcasts, mpegs of all flavours and the rest. It even comes in Mac, Linux and Windows flavours. Could this do for video what Netscape did for browsing? [via Boingboing]
Stop squinting at tiny web video. Instead, download and watch all the best internet TV shows in one powerful application: any video RSS feed, video podcast, video blog, or BitTorrent file. Fullscreen, high resolution, 100% free and open source. New channels arrive daily in the built-in Channel Guide.
