Joost gets back on our radar with iPhone app

Joost_iPhone_App_Shot_1.PNG Friday, Joost released an iPhone app that lets users stream and watch any of Joost's 46,000-plus videos for free. News.com reports with a rave review.

quotemarksright.jpgSay what you will about Joost's library of content, the concept behind this app is fantastic. The ability to stream a movie, TV show, or other piece of video content on the go is great. I know the technology is nothing revolutionary--after all the iPhone has had a YouTube app, complete with streaming video, since the device launched. Even given that, when you load up Men in Black on Joost, it just feels like a whole different ballgame. This isn't a video of a dog on a skateboard anymore.

This is real, Hollywood-produced content, delivered to your phone, for free.quotesmarksleft.jpg
