Livestation brings news channels to your desktop. There are only 8 channels at the moment: Aljazeera, BBC World, Bloomberg, Euro News, France 24, iTele, RT, and BBC World Service. What makes it so attractive is the picture quality, it’s just as good as on a regular television set. The audio quality is pretty good as well. For more details see Mark’s Livestation review.

I can't wait to see what more news channels we're going to get in the US. I sure hope we get BBC World. I wish I knew the real situation with BBC World in the US. It seems very fragmented. I get it streaming now via RealNetworks for $5.95 per month but I'd much prefer to get it on Livestation. I guess it makes sense that the existence of that paid stream is why BBC won't let Livestation give it away for free during the trial. I hope BBC don't have an exclusive agreement with Real or anyone else so that it will never be on Livestation even if and when Livestation becomes a paid service. I somewhat fear that may be the case. The cable channel called "BBC America", distributed by Discovery Networks, broadcasts "BBC World News America" every weeknight and that has the BBC World logo so ... perhaps that one hour per day agreement is preventing the likes of Livestation carrying it. I think BBC World is available on Verizon Fios in a few states but it's certainly not widely available. I guess we'll have to wait and see. I have to agree that Livestation is very good.

I can't wait for them to add some more channels. News is good but I would like some entertainment too. This is great! I can’t wait for them to add some more channels.
