If you’re into watching free video content on the web, Miro 1.0 is pretty much a must-have. With 2,700 channels of free content, downloads using the built in BitTorrent client and software to monitor RSS feeds for new content, Miro should keep you happily bug-eyed in front of your monitor for endless hours.  In an ideal world, every video, movie and TV show you ever wanted to watch would be available for download direct from the source and you could watch it where ever you pleased. But as long as that world remains a fantasy, Miro 1.0 may well be your best alternative.
Miro is essentially an online video browser, aggregator and player. Find content you like, turn it into a channel in Miro and the software will monitor RSS feeds, alerting you whenever new videos are posted. Once they download via the built in BitTorrent client, watch the videos right inside the Miro player. Pretty much like you imagine internet TV should be. The software is free, cross-platform and open-source.
On Tuesday morning, Miro released version 1.0 of its client. The release comes after a long period of beta testing during which the app has gained a cult following.
