This past week, I’ve mentioned both my desire to be able to port favorites from YouTube right into my iPhone, and how The Fifth Element is legally posted on the web, for all to see.

There’s more, of course. How about this: every episode of the TV series Twin Peaks? That’s not working for you? How about The Love Boat, or Melrose Place, or MacGyver? The original Star Trek series?

CBS is doing it right, putting great older stuff online for all to watch for free. More, here.

    Great ideas, ‘cept that those “ferners” don’t need access to >our< national treasures, like Melrose Place or, even better, 90210!!! Uh, wait, WE can’t get to the goods!! :(

    Cheers!!

    I know, I know, I know. Folks like CBS claim that this is because of the difference in copyright laws. Which is stupid. If you’re putting it on the web, for free, what should it matter?
