A Hot Date with Miro

Now that you've used Todoist to get all your pending tasks done (or at least catalogued) and Mint to sort out your fiscal world, it's time to sit back and relax.

Unfortunately, Comcast is evil and you're not eligible for Verizon FIOS. What's a girl to do?

I plan on sitting down tonight with Miro (formerly the Democracy Player) to see what is has to offer. It appears to provide everything an upstanding intellectual (well, intellectual property thief) could want in a video player:

  • High-Def content
  • DRM-free
  • Thousands of channels
  • RSS access
  • YouTube
  • Support for all kinds of oddball video formats
  • Privacy (if you take their word for it)
  • Open source GPL hotness
  • Something called The Midwest Teen Sex Show

I hope to post a review tomorrow.
