Maybe you guys just need a hobby. Try carving balsa wood... very relaxing. Wait, not watching TV but spending more time on the internet improves mental health? Maybe you guys just need a hobby.

Of the two, I only have experience with Joost, and I've been asking myself "what does this really offer me, that the TV doesn't?". Having canceled our TV service a couple of months ago for a 15/2 FIOS connection (and better mental health), my wife and I have been looking for entertainment alternatives online, and Joost is certainly not "it". Not only because it offers very limited social networking features, and no user participation, but also because it comes too close to "real" TV, meaning commercials, lack of variety, mediocre content, etc. I'll download Miro now and give it a try. -onur Thanks for the post John.
