Question Zango?

I have been looking for a website to play tv shows I missed online.

Quite a few of them want me to install a program called Zango to play the file?

I can't get a clear indication if I should risk installing it or not.

Does anyone have any experience with Zango?

Zango = spyware.

Don't. Even. Consider. It.

Or do, no skin off my back. Just depends how badly you want to watch the latest 90210 Episode.

You could also:

a) watch them in pieces on Youtube (not sure if this is possible or not)

b) download a torrent.

But you didn't hear that from me, since it might be illegal. Just don't make money off it and I think it's safe.

Zango is definately some kind of spyware program. Download BitComet Torrent, and download movies/episodes that way.

Doh. I thought this was going to be a thread on some kind of cool adaptation of Django.

Not the CRTC, its the copyright laws.

(CRTC may be required to enforce it, but they didn't write it)
