Client or Browser?

Video provider Joost is moving away from its desktop client player ways and will deliver video within browsers. This is a departure for Skype and Kazaa founders Janus Friis and Niklas Zennstrom as they attempt to create a P2P video network. The idea is that they’ll still require subscribers to download a P2P plugin to facilitate playback but the stand alone player is gone.
