Oh man, Shoutcast brings me fond memories. There used to be some very good (albeit illegal) show providers like EveryShowSucks (ESS). The nice thing about the shoutcast model, is that you could just tune into a channel and consume whatever was available (knowing it was going to be good).

It is something that is not available in the Netflix-es, and Hulus of the world (and something that Cable still has).
