The interface is slick, and it's clear that Adobe has put a lot of work into the media player since its beta days. Playback is no longer choppy and the content library is choc full of shows you might actually want to watch. Not as full as say, your cable box, but given the web video landscape, it's not bad.
Users can also add any online video to their player with an RSS feed. It took us a few minutes to find the "Add RSS" option, so we'll save you some trouble: It's in the "My Favorites" section.
Adobe has also launched Adobe TV, which is basically a web site filled with tutorials and other information about Adobe related products. You can either watch Adobe TV videos from the web or using Adobe Media Player.

No Linux version. Thumbs down. In contradiction to:
"...Adobe is joining the Linux Foundation today, joining other companies including HP, Google, and Nokia. The group encourages Linux development..." - Adobe labs web site

Looks great, runs smoothly for coming out of beta, few hiccups. Very little real content.

Cool, now I can get programs from US in the UK without having to use a proxy server - in other words this bypasses firewalls!
