SheGeeks: TV Web Services

  • Mutema · 2 years ago
    Be reasonable, these services are in their infancy. As they move toward critical mass, what about the niche content that they're able to offer? The kind of content that the major networks don't feel is mainstream enough but when distributed to a global 'niche', makes it commercially viable? It's analogous to bands using MySpace as a means of gaining an audience for their music. Jalipo offer live programming whereas Joost don't so Jalipo are closer to 'proper telly' in my view. Rome wasn't built in a day.

    Neither were any of these services built in a day. Which is why I don't understand why they are being released with empty promises. They meet too many setbacks and dead ends and it's only hurting them and bringing about pre-conceived notions of TV online.

    What are their empty promises? The fact that they launched with programming that you didn't want to watch?
