Viacom will be teaming up with Joost to provide TV shows from MTV, BET Networks and Paramount Pictures on the P2P internet TV platform. Joost aims to be a TV replacement service where you are free of schedules and have control over what you watch, when you want to watch it. Several companies are running TV replacement services, and it seems to be an interesting market with loads of developments. A lot of people were expecting Viacom to signup with Youtube, as the latter also aims to be a TV replacement and currently has enough exposure to do so. It was only after Viacom's request to remove 100,000 clips from Youtube recently that people started to think Viacom might choose another partner for TV broadcast content.
Viacom's leading brands include the multiplatform properties of MTV Networks, including MTV, VH1, Nickelodeon, Nick at Nite, COMEDY CENTRAL, CMT: Country Music Television, Spike TV, TV Land, Logo and more than 130 networks around the world, as well as digital assets such as Neopets, Xfire, ifilmlinks and Atom Entertainment; BET Networks; Paramount Pictures; Paramount Home Entertainment; DreamWorks; and Famous Music.(WebTVWire)
