Does "Joost" have what it takes to grab mind share from YouTube ?

(Ironically enough, one of the FEW times I've scrutinized a EULA) wink

From the Joost EULA:
2.1.2. The Joost? Software will utilize the processor, bandwidth and hard drive (or other memory or storage hardware) and/or cache of your computer (or other applicable device) for the limited purpose of facilitating the communication between, and the transmittal of data, content, programming, services or features to, you and other Joost? Software users, and to facilitate the operation of the network of computers running instances of the Joost? Software.

While I am in the position that I can give consent for my processor, I don't think I can consent to them using my bandwidth. MY ISP just might consider that as me providing some sort of server. Long story short, I cancelled the install once I read that.
