1- Hulu
http://www.hulu.com
Hulu who’s focus is to provide worlds most premium content online. A company founded in March 2007 with a join venture with NBC universal & News Corp. They have signed up with more then 50 broadcasting companies like FOX, NBC, MGM, Sony Pictures, Warner Brothers … to provide full length episodes of most famous and most favorite Television shows, which could be The Simpson’s, Family Guy, The Usual Suspects. Apart from that Hulu have also started publishing full length featured films like ‘The 40 year old version’, Devil Wears Prada and many more. With so much content and of good quality Hulu is still free to use but the only catch is there content is locked for regions meaning if you are outside USA you might not be able to see these shows as Hulu is protecting its content for copyright violation.

But being net geeks we always find a way out you might want to check our previous post on How to watch Hulu outside USA.

2- Joost.

Joost is yet another great online Tv broadcasting web. Unlike Hulu joost’s content is viewable with the help of its own software which is in its beta phase, but you can download install on a windows / mac and start watching the Joost shows. Just like hulu Joost’s content also have geographical limitation, meaning shows broad casted in USA can only be watched within USA.

Joost claims to have more then 20 000 shows online, with more added on daily bases. Apart from that Joost has a great picture quality better then Hulu in some cases.

3- Maniatv
http://www.maniatv.com/
Maniatv, launched way back in 2004 claims to be the world’s first Interent television network. The company produces, sells and distributes content made for internet for an age range of 18-34. Unlike Hulu & Joost Maniatv publishes & creates its own content with help of its own or partnered production teams. The content produced by Maniatv is only for online publication so far and claims to have more then 8million viewers every month. There programs range from music, comedy, drama or action sports. Maintv idea is innovative and quite aggressive in a sense that they are the first online television station.

One issue at there end the do lack a bit in picture quality.

4-Joox

Joox provides tv / moview / documentaries which it has collected from stage6 which has been closed down.
Joox has a very good collection of really new english moview, the streaming speed is good though the picture qualit is okai. Apart from that Joox also provides movies, music videos from bolloywood & foreign filims as well.

One issue from joox is its live as they they dont host the movies on there own so there content keeps on changing depending upon the availability from diffrent sources they use.
