Okay, what is the deal with Live Streaming
not being available with Fox News? Why do we only get a web page with a few pre-recorded videos? Realplayer streams live fox quite well.

Also, how to distinguish between the live
channels and others? Apple is waisting our time by not making this clear.

I am getting a streamed movie at 300 kbit/sec where I am, so I know there is no problem with streaming (as well can you say Akamai!).

If you open the 4.x QT player and choose from the fav drawer and still can't see video you may have your settings incorrect. Perhaps a firewall in the way (like me). So you need to allow for streaming in the 80 or 8080 port. Simply use the auto configure button in the quicktime settings to set it up.

It streams fine, but Fox news doesn't stream
LIVE. You try and get LIVE fox news on quicktime. If you can, please let us know how.

A web page with video clips is just not so cool. We want Live streaming. Like VH1, why not stream that live?
