Venice is coming to town

Been a long time from the last post, just hope i still remember how to write.

Venice, the lovely city that i missed out the chance to visit this summer, is the chosen code-name of a big project that supposedly is the next big thing. The Venice project, being developed by two creators of Kazaa (the same guys who created Skype) promises the best mergence (if it's even a word) of the three hottest digital issues: TV-shows, peer-to-peer, and digital copyright. Simply speaking, it would allow you to upload/download latest tv-shows/drama via a p2p infrastructure, and use them in the conformance with some sort of digital right protection.
So good content, high speed, prosectuion-free. What would we want more ? As those two Kazaa/Skype creators have established such good reputation, this project is highly anticipated, even though there had not been very clear documentation describing exactly what are the main features that it would include.
The beta version of this project had been released from yesterday (15-12-06) to a limitted, through-invitation sets of of users. This guy was one of the lucky to get hold of it very early, when lot (like me) are still checking the mailbox every hour hoping for an instruction to download. Screenshots look good.

Hopefully after using i would have a clearer idea of the benefit of this project compared to Bittorrent or other file-sharing network. Hope it really worths the pretty name (of Venice).
