mariposahd tv

Looks like a couple of ex pat yanks moved to Buenos Aires and found the absolute perfect job, video taping beautiful South American women in
HD1080i and offering their shows for free under the creative commans license.

moriposa is spanish for butterfly it turns out.
Requires a broadband connection and hd display, my princeton 20.1 display maxes out at 1680x1050 and it scales down just great.

All I can say is 'oh my gawd'. Available via Instant Media tv (requires free download of Intand Media player/organizer)). Rated pg13.
http://www.marposahd.tv for more info.

If this is the future of TV, count me in.

i've seen about 2 or 3 episodes. while HD in of itself is great... the content is too loose for me. yeah, the women are beautiful and the bikini really slim... but i can find better content to waste my time.

if this is the "future of TV" (and it isn't) count me out. i'm referring to content only.

now, as to distribution (online) and quality (1080p & 720p) it is absolutely amazing they are doing a great job attracting attention. if the content is there, they will have more viewers.

Thats what I meant. The content is lightweight, but the distribution model has potential. Basically similar to the TIVO model but supporting different formats.
And if you know where to find videos of hot South American women that are better, please post :))).

That link doesn't work for me. Has the site been taken down perhaps?

my bad spelling, don't do well when drinking too much scotch.

Here is the correct link

btw, it's distributed under creative commons so you can legally make copies and share with friends.
