al-Jazeera pay-per-view
: You can now watch al-Jazeera — but you have to pay. Ish.com, the German service that had been streaming it, just put up a pay gate (via German company Firstgate.com): .10 Euros per minute. I just spent 30 cents watching the U.S. ambassador walk out on Iraq’s ambassador at the U.N.
Worth it.

Duh, sorry. You have it right. I just did not see that . in front of the .10 … it is still too early here. /me needs coffee.
Heh, I`m in Ukraine an I can watch CNN, BBC, al-Jazeera live via cable TV… Free speech, you said?
Wonder how you paid? Dont think I’d give my credit card info to someone collecting money to watch AJ….
It’s a reputable service that takes the payment; I even know them: a German company called FirstGate.
