democracy seems nice, but I dont want to have to download the videos to watch them

Are those... pit-stains under Balmer's arms? Geeze, there's barely one square inch of dry clothing on him. It apparently trickled down his flabby neck too, reaching his stomach.

Excuse me while I lay down until my nausea subsides. I'm not even kidding. I just ate dinner, and I would like to keep it in my tummy.

Is it just me, or is Democracy REALLY slow and CPU heavy?

Good concept, however

Don't worry, I don't buy into the hype either.

It's not even 1.0 yet so hold your horses. It does seem to have a nice idea behind it all.

No, it just sucks. Instead of providing a wealth of great alternative TV content, I instead find a wash of stuff crappier than anything on TV, which is pompus enough to think it's good content. Remember the first rule of user-content: 99% of it sucks ass, the key is finding the gems.

The directory of content it provides is too small to have enough gems. Oh, and the ability to go out and add torrents of stuff that's not in their directory? Sucks ass too, because it's the worst torrenting app I've seen either.

Remember, everyone doesn't want their cell phone to play MP3s until it actually *plays* MP3s, instead of doing a half-assed attempt at it. I don't want some magical alternative user content TV/bittorrent/RSS/blah blah blah super integration app until it also does something more than a half-assed attempt at integration.

I was actually meaning that by 1.0 the CPU overload may be fixed, not that the entirety of the app will get better.

i will give this app try.. but best player for now is Chroma

Fair enough.
