HeavyTV screens different full-length movies every week for broadband users. Showing this week: Airheads, Live From Baghdad, Pacific Heights and Extreme Ops.
though presumably, a bogus one will do
Empty space works just fine as well...and things worked fine on resolutions >1024x768 for me.
The donation plea I watched before seeing (THE CREDITS ONLY YOU MPAA BONEWADS JUST STEP THE HELL OFF) "Airheads" made me realize: this is PBS for the new millenium.

Doesn't appear to work in Safari. Can't say I really expected it to.

Safari works fine if you turn off the pop-up window blocking. I'm using Safari as we speak.

I applaud their efforts, but I would consider contributing money to them only if their content were not so very, very horrible.
Wait, I wandered in here from a PBS thread.

yeah, it's no testicle theatre, that's for sure.
Wait a week. Maybe you'll find something you'll like then.

Sweet for my English-TV-less expat broadband-enabled ass.
Unsweet that there was an announcement midway through one of the movies that they're going secure, password-protected, soon.

All old cable TV offerings...Was hard pressed to pick from the weak selection just to see the quality of the movies. Didn't work in Mozilla 1.5b either. Looked OK but had to use IE (shudder).
As an aside, when I spell checked this comment the dictionary suggested I replace "IE" with "die"...
