Life is good without the headache of Comcrap HSI]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,13590733 Mon, 06 Jun 2005 14:21:01 EDT Re: G4 is crap... http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,13590674 anon : I listen to the weekend KFI show and I have to say the first 15 minute commentary is the best part, the rest of the show is boring tech calls about issues I could fix for these people myself, it's a show mainly for n00bs and thats ok, because there is a lot of them out there, but when you start building pc's and tech support for friends and family there isn't much there for the hardcore. TWiTs is great for people like me that just want to hear a bunch of tech geeks talking about the latest tech of the week. I can do with out the stupid spyware/virus calls and driver issues these callers call in for. ]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,13590674 Mon, 06 Jun 2005 14:14:00 EDT Re: G4 is crap... http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,13590467 oliphant : Yeah...I would probably be more into these podcasts if we didn't have Leo's show on our local radio station.

All Games, all the time...with MTV type rejects as hosts. What a concept. Do the gaming kiddies actually watch this channel ?, or does Comcast use it as a write off of some sort?

Now these audio shows from Leo & friends, I *dig* these.

Tech related roundtable discussion in casual style with opinions & humor. Man I wish a local radio station broadcasted something like this. Yes these Twit casts are still dealing with sound quality issues with the multiple voice over internet clients, but the content is entertaing and almost always informative.

I wonder if a video version might be feasible in the future, distributed by bit torrent or something.

They might be on to something here. This could be the start of a type of Internet TV. (Specialized content, No network meddling whims, commercial free ).]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,13590432 Mon, 06 Jun 2005 13:47:15 EDT Re: G4 is crap... http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,13590022 sbhusted : Podcasting is not a 'waste of time'. It's a very young technology that is still finding it's way. The TWIT casts are being downloaded in mass, and are ranked #1 on many podcast ranking sites and there are usually an abundance of seeds on BT to download from without much problem.

I commend Leo, Kevin, Patrick, Robert, Yoshi, etc. for putting this together and to begin a process of creating a show that they have complete control over. It was absolutely painful to watch what happened to the Screen Savers and what the "management" did to that show. G4 is an absolute waste of space.

Ihe only time the channel didn't suck is when it was called ZDTV!

Long Live ZDTV!
