Typing this article marked the first day I used something in Linux. To tell the truth, I don’t see much difference between using this and Windows. I don’t have much to say, really – just that Linux should be worthy of a try from you guys. I’ve tried it, and I certainly don’t think it as even bad. It’s pretty good, actually.
***
Asides aside, I hung around the chatroom of the ripping-group [LA] yesterday, because they dropped Hikaru no Go out of their ripping list, having only MAR and Prince of Tennis as the anime they will rip everytime a new episode comes out. By the way, I stand corrected by having expounded on what Jetstream was. It isn’t a Norwegian streaming-media company, but it is a subsidiary of Cartoon Network, and I was surprised I only knew about it recently. (I’m almost always behind anime happenings, however, so I don’t really mind all that much.)
A Google search brought me to several sites talking about Jetstream’s arrival; however, I viewed only AnimeNewsNetwork’s take on its advent, because ANN has been a reputable source when it comes to anime for quite some time already.
Toonami Jetstream is now online, serving free full length episodes of Naruto, Hikaru no Go, and the North American premieres of MÄR and The Prince of Tennis. The service officially launches Monday.
There you have it. [LA], perhaps, as a group, is among the most useless in the anime community (no offense to [LA]) because even one of the group members themselves admitted to doing nothing more than having a stream catcher, taking the stream and then posting it on somewhere™. (Hey, this is perhaps among the other things I’m not used to in Linux – they have another button to use to create a special character, not the alt button. I don’t know what U pertains to.)
I’m just pretty happy, and I guess it’s also news to some that Jetstream shows anime episodes of MAR, Hikaru no Go, Naruto, and Prince of Tennis for 24/7 – and for free. Still, because I’m not under a broadband, don’t watch the other anime and definitely don’t watch dubs, I leave the choice of viewing Jetstream to you. Perhaps if you want some laughs, you could watch Hikaru no Go and laugh at Sai’s ethereally gay voice. Or if you simply want a laugh, just tune in to Jetstream.

is this free show is for U.S only or its for Canada too?
August 21, 2006 at 12:44 am
Yep, the American dub for Hikaru no Go is *painful*…

Ok I official hate Toonami Jetstream, Canadian’s can’t view the videos. How lame is that. and like someone else said no support for mac’s argh!!!!
my pc doesn’t even have a internet connection.

As of the time of this writing 1/25/07,Jetstream does support Firefox and since Firefox is available for Mac that means even Mac users can enjoy Toonami JetStreamy goodness.Now as for Canadian people not being able to watch,that is untested as I live in the US,but I’m sure there are ways around that(exmpl:use a U.S.proxy or anonymizer site or a prog that will modify your browser headers)

long time between responses, but no … you can’t install active-x controls in firefox on the mac, only on the pc

Toonami Jetstream sounds like a great concept…except for the fact it does not support Mac. I hate to break it to the blockheads at Cartoon Network that one of the most important ideals of good web design is cross platform compatibility. So come on CN! Let’s get with the program here and let we Mac users have our piece of the pie.

Hi there! This blog post couldn’t be written any better! Reading through this post reminds me of my previous roommate! He continually kept preaching about this. I’ll send this article to him.
Fairly certain he will have a great read. Thanks for sharing!
