« Mexico voters weigh a 'New Deal'; R.I. helps the rich; Springsteen video: Bring 'Em Home | Main | Warren Buffett on giving his wealth to Bill Gates' foundation; Wi-fi 'clouds' need to be free » June 25, 2006New free streaming TV portal: I'm 'at' an acoustic club in L.A,(Ack! A misplaced tag made this item nearly blank. Fixed now, obviously.) I'm at Streamick.com (beta, of course) watching full-screen acoustic music performances from a storefront L.A. club. Right now, the Streamick stream is flawless, but not a lot of people know about it yet. Can it scale? We'll see. I'm sending the audio via usb through a tuner to my stereo floor speakers -- sounds terrific. One quibble: I'm watching a playlist. I switched streams to check out some other stuff, and the show started over again from the beginning. There are no controls, so What I'm watching: Kulak's Woodshed Kulak's is operated by volunteers and with donations. I'd love to see this from local clubs and musicians -- record, archive and Webcast live performances. (It would also popularize the clubs; audiences would show up to be part of the video.) This is what I always hoped local public-access cable would be. There's a lot more here, including live TV stations. But acoustic is just perfect for this rainy afternoon. Posted by Sheila Lennon |
