Free Live TV Channels become reality!

Wow, can you imagine if you can watch all live tv channels from all around the world..for free! Sopcast (www.sopcast.com), a peer-to-peer (P2P) broadcasting software offers you this kind of opportunity. Using sopcast, you're able to broadcast live channels freely, watch live channels freely, embed sopcast player on your webpage without any cost, and many more....:)

Of course, this come with some hidden cost-bandwidth. As we know that video streaming applications can be classified as bandwidth intensive applications. But the great news is for many countries, which internet has been developed majorly, this would not hinder sopcast usage. Indonesian people are among the unlucky people around the world that cannot enjoy this service widely. Well, maybe some rich people in Indonesia can use sopcast with decent fps to watch, but for most of people here...sopcast would not be an option.

Bandwidth in Indonesia is considered very expensive. It's ironic that Singapore, a neighbor country near Sumatra island, has a very cheaper bandwidth than Indonesia has. Maybe someday this would be changed and we, ordinary Indonesian people, can start to use sopcast anyway ;)...
