Comments on: Higher Quality Yields Higher Viewership http://www.movenetworks.com/blog/differentiated-by-quality Tue, 09 Sep 2008 21:36:35 -0700 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.4 hourly 1 By: Alice http://www.movenetworks.com/blog/differentiated-by-quality/comment-page-1#comment-147 Alice Tue, 09 Sep 2008 21:36:35 +0000 http://www.movenetworks.com/blog/differentiated-by-quality#comment-147 Movenetworks supports two operating systems. One of them is actually slower than the previous version of that operating system. This means Movenetworks is forcing viewers to downgrade to slower performance on their brand new computers. That's just not fair, with all due respect to that "slower" operating system company. The second supported operating system is excellent, just the most expensive option. It is worth the extra money. But many people simply can not afford the most expensive option. Linux is by far the most affordable. It is also lightning fast and is receiving more support than ever before from ALL the big name PC manufacturers, with drivers for brand new PC components, such as RAM and new huge harddrives, and the latest dual processors. Movenetworks needs to support Linux because it has become what people have come to expect from their operating system. Movenetworks supports two operating systems.

Linux is growing, especially with the advent of more user friendly desktop Linux OSes, the growing overhead in Windows (resources and $$$), the drive towards more mobile computing, and the recognition that there is a lot of really good free software. I found this blog from a long thread (actually several threads) in an Ubuntu forum. Im looking forward to Move on Linux. Thanks!

I have to dual boot in order to see "my shows" because Movenetworks doesn't support linux. I love the freedom to watch the shows I like, when I like, and where I like. I will be looking forward to the linux version. Movenetworks' quality is amazing. Keep up the great work.

Please, I need the player ASAP since I hate windows and I wan't linux to be my home default OS. All of my TV channels are with Movenetworks player.

Kinda stinks. Used to be able to watch ABC.com shows online. Glad to hear, "it's in the works." Hope that pans out sooner than later. I was happy to see Adobe finally support flash for Linux. I just hope we don't have to wait as long as Adobe took...especially where alternative media players like Move are becoming more appealing to publishers. Either way, I have alot of praise for Adobe and Move for even porting this to Linux in the first place (we have yet to see from Move, I suppose. Wait and see...)

After a little exploration, I found that what was common to ABC, the CW, and Fox (but not to CBS or NBC) was Move Networks. Congratulations on an excellent product!

What's up? And why does the player say "Flash 9" when I click on it? I thought it was a separate plugin? Like the player on Mac, Windows, but can’t use it in Linux. What’s up?

There is always a player to stream video, though it may not be seen, especially if it's already installed on a machine. Having a player installed (or in Move's case, a plug-in) allows for greater intelligence and a better viewer experience. Likewise, we don't have to cache files to a computer's hard drive, but we do it because it improves the viewer's experience. Thomas, Thanks for your question.
