    Azbox and Youtube API access getting pulled

    ADVERTS 1
    I caught this on the engadget's site, this might affect you Azbox owners that watch Youtube clips on it, same with other set top boxes that use the Youtube API.

    YouTube pulls a Hulu -- yanking API access from Popcorn Hour (Update: Google responds) -- Engadget

    Thanks Marco, the link is interesting. The user-posted comments are hilarious too! I agree with that last one that said "Who cares? You-Tube is turning into a steaming pile anyway!" LOL

    Wish they would !!
    In my dreams, there is a configuration menu that you can select the features you want , and NOTHING more, and all the cpu power would be directed at that configuration.

    Yea, some of the commentary comments are funny, I like what one poster said, "most of the stuff on You Tube is illegal anyway" Engadget, and Gizmodo are some of my favorite Tech sites on what’s what with up and coming technologies for the consumer. They don't cover allot of DVB-S gear, but once an awhile they showcase something that’s either OTA related or Dish related.

    Me thinks little to no processing power is used unless you run the YouTube application.

    Would be nice to eliminate the stuff you don't use on the Home screen...

    Maybe Az will end up porting the YouTube menu over to something useful like Justin.TV
