Has time run out for Joost? - TV Squad

Has time run out for Joost? - TV Squad

Joost and YouTube are hardly the only games in town when it comes to online video. But TechCrunch's Eirck Schonfeld poses an interesting question: is Joost's time already up?

The online video platform has barely entered public beta, but Adobe is about to change the game somewhat by incorporating the h.264 codec in the next version of its Flash player software. That means all the videos you watch on YouTube, DailyMotion, Metacafe, or pretty much any other online video site will suddenly look an awful lot sharper without using up any more bandwidth.
