Citigroup bank might be saved through the recession.

According to reports from ABC News, Citibank is having a hard time and might need to be assisted by the government.

[ad#ad2-right]The company has seen its shares lose 60 percent of their value in the past week, reflecting a crisis of confidence among skittish investors. They are worried all the risky debt on Citigroup’s balance sheet will turn into losses as the economy worsens and the markets stay turbulent — losses that could be nearly impossible to reverse.

Although this is somewhat expected, I don’t think we can afford to pay the debt of a bank.  We are all having to deal with this recession.   I don’t know how they can afford to pay for Citigroup and expect this to help bolster the economy.   I guess only time will tell!!!

HD Ware in Downloads!

Although, I think HD is the same thing as Blu-ray.  Most people now a days are looking into the the download section instead of having a DVD.  So here is what I think they missed.  Some things you might be missing is that Hulu has decided to take on the cause and start publishing the HD videos.

Having seen, the devastation of the format war. Engadget talked about this same little thing.   Either way I think we only begun to see the relevance and cost of downloading.  We’ve got two different formats trying to get on the bandwidth of your local ISP.  Here’s where it get hard.  Which of the two would you rather download, a 8 gig or a 20 gig file.  Then you have to think of how much time it will take to download the file so you could watch it.

As you can see it gets so hard to download all these types of files when you could stream it.  Yes you could download it but downloading it takes time.  Why not watch it in relatively short time, like 10 minutes or so!! So I thought I throw out a few ideas on stream this HD without having to download it.

Hulu

As with Anyhting else, You can have standard definition videos and High Def Videos come from this little site.  It takes so little time going to site that you to can find some really good videos at this.  This show That I used as an example.

Hulu HD

CBS

Having been using CBS for all my standard def and high def experiences.  I’ve found that this site is also just as good as Hulu.  Although I think Hulu is the best there is, this is definitely second on my list!!


NBC

NBC has so many shows coming to there fall line up, I actually have them on my list also for third.  Although they will never compete with Hulu due to the fact they have server and lag issues they have been really nice to go to when I need to find a program that I’ve missed or wanted to watch.

ABC Family

ABC Family has so many good shows on that are original and also very nice to watch.  Most of these others that I’ve listed. The one that I like is:

KyleXY

Fancast

This is the the last one.  It’s called fancast.  They actually have like a variety of networks linked into this little site.  They have NBC, CBS, and Hulu which is really good.  I like to go here to find some of the ones that others don’t have.  Let me show you one  of them that you can only watch at fancast.

Farscape

I am sure there are others that you can only watch there on Fancast but that one is the one that I’ve found that I can only watch there.  You can even watch trailers there to.  If you know something that I’ve missed please leave a comment.  I want to find out more free streaming sites.
