Will Disney and Joost live happily ever after?

A Disney executive let slip that Disney are considering the Joost platform, bringing Disney on board would be a massive coup. Kevin Mayer, Disney’s EVP of corporate strategy, business development, and technology group said..

.. the company is analyzing a potential relationship with internet TV provider Joost, which recently came to terms with Viacom on a content deal as well. He cited Joost’s “high quality format” and “excellent management team” as two reasons Disney might be interested in a deal.

Calling time on Beta

Last call for Joost Beta testers, after tomorrow no more testers are being request for Joost as it moves on to the next level.

We’re reaching another big milestone this week. After months of testing with many thousands of users, we’re ready to move Joost on to the next stage of its development.

In preparation for this we’re closing down applications for the beta testing program on the website at the end of Thursday (GMT). Between this time and the public availability of Joost, access will be by invitation from beta testers only.

The good news is, that everyone who applies before we close will get access to try out Joost within the next couple of weeks - how is that for a treat? :o )

This means if you have not already applied for beta then do so today or tomorrow at the latest.
