What is it?
Miro is a free and open source video player which does the following:
- plays any video file (it's built on the VLC project);
- allows you to search and download videos from Youtube, Google Video, bliptv and at least four other video services right from its interface;
- acts as a bit torrent client (which gives you access to many more video sources); and,
- gives you access to many high-quality Internet Tv channels.
Miro is also cross-platform (Mac, Linux, Windows)
