Somedays when he is not being a Cranky Geek, John Dvorak comes up with good stuff. Today he points to HolerSoft, a French company that has come-up with a Windows-only application that allows you to watch 1200 channels from around the world on your PC. “The cable companies should consider the Holersoft announcement as a shot over the bow and begin to rethink their business model, fast,” he quips. Of course, while the broadband players dither, there are other options. John points to Channel Chooser, which has a few hundred channels. Now we know, if Jeff Pulver reads this post, he is going to be late for the VoN show next week.
