This is pretty cool for all those with libraries that support it. Just video based content right now, but I'm hoping they add audio based content soon (ie: audio books and music).

Would be nice if they had HD content tho, but it's free and they have some interesting content.

I was thinking of checking it out til I looked at the permission list.

Another app that thinks they can pull a 'Mobdro' with my info..?

No thanks!
