Joost UK shuts down

On the heels of news that Kazaa Kreators Niklas Zennstrom (left) and Janus Friis figure the net should again be alive with the sound of music — their music — comes further information that their Joost online TV thingie, launched with much ballyhoo a couple of years ago, has been virtually switched off. In January Joost was supposed to have been reinventing itself by offering allegedly broadcast-quality content to viewers for free, ‘free’ being advertising-driven. The site is still online but, “the office furniture of Joost UK Limited, registered in England and Wales with number 05821718, has apparently already found its way to another startup,” says TechCrunch .
