Ooh TV

OOH TV! Beta ViewChannel

Well, I think it will do a lot more. Ooh has stuff that will appeal to kids who want to watch car-crash TV and indulge in the damage collateral side of life.
On the other hand not many channels are pumping stuff out to kids on art, art movies, museums and exhibits. […]

Old Media Decline
