NBC Direct...not worth the hype

NBC's system for allowing viewers to rewatch or catch up on missed episodes, NBC Direct, is apparently a piece of junk. Of course don't take it from us but here is some info on the system. You need to have the newest security update on the newest Internet Explorer in order to get the content. The material offered is only 7 days old or newer and once downloaded, the clock starts and 48 hours later your episode of Heroes or Bionic Woman explodes.

NBC Direct also failed to make it portable media so we aren't sure why you would want to use it, but oh yeah it's free so we will shut up.
