Hi.
I don't know if anyone posted about this program in the past so sorry if this was done before.
This program is called Internet tv and it comes from a website called jlc's software.
This program has got a list updater to make sure that somebody has got the latest channels available. It also has an updater for somebody to get the latest software.
Also people can add the channels they watch often in their favorites.
The address is: http://jlc-software.com/index.php?page=internet_tv.html

This program is pretty accessible. The only thing that doesn't work very well is the fact that when we find a channel we want to watch pressing enter on it or the application key doesn't do anything. We have to use jaws cursor or virtual focus or whatever it is called in other screen readers to right click and then choose the watch option from the list. The other options we have are go to homepage and add or remove from favorites.
I only tested this program with supernova. I didn't test it with jaws yet.
By using it for a few minutes i would say that it is a nice little program and if you want give it a go.
The program needs windows media player and real player to show the channels.

Thanks all. I am glad you found this program interesting.
Iternity i don't know if i understand your question. Do you mean what is tv like over the net? I don't know about the picture but sound for some of the channels is not great and it is not standart channels somebody can watch on local television most of the time. It is usually the satellite programs that tv channels send for people abroad, there are usually news or music channels or some religious. In other words you are not likely to find channels that have films with this program but i still find it very interesting. You have got nothing to loose to check it out and the list seams to get updated often so more channels could be added.
