More Free 24: Watch Episodes Online
Reader Will tipped us to Fox now offering the first four episodes of 24 on the Myspace TV portal, with the fifth available tonight. You have to download their media player, but the quality is pretty good in full-screen mode. Fox already made the first four episodes available on DVD, well ahead of the traditional TV-to-DVD cycle.
I’ve said it once and I’ll say it again: if you offer free online streams of your content online, fewer people will resort to unauthorized digital distribution. Even I would rather just watch an instant-on online stream, including ads, than wait for a torrent to download.

As a confessed 24 junkie, I am appalled at the fact that I cannot access episodes while I am in Japan. My Slingbox is on the blink, and can’t watch 24 or Heroes on NBC or Fox.
Thank goodnesss for sites like dailymotion and peekvid!

[…] What nobody seems to be pointing out is that Fox’s parent, News Corp, is in direct competition with Google and YouTube thanks to MySpace — where Fox is currently streaming the very epsiodes of 24 in question. It’s well-known that News Corp was not thrilled about the Google-YouTube tie-up, and Fox content appearing on YouTube is an ideal opportunity for News Corp to apply pressure to its “frenemy.” […]

If your really into streaming tv episodes, you might find this site to be simply mind blowing- I am currently watching 24 streams on my iPhone or desktop with unlimited access to more than 200 TV series – complete seasons (yup every episode every season!) using a site called http://3click.tv so far as long as my wifi signal is strong I have 25000 episodes in my pocket :)
