called JumpTV.com
will launch a service similar to the foiled ICraveTV.com. Using BorderControl.com,
a more robust -and controversial- system of assuring a users geographical
location, the startup is hoping to succeed where its predecessor failed."
It figures out where you are (based on your IP) and then gives you television
from you area (if its got it) in the form of a an online VCR. How long will
this one last?
