This is where I can get my cycling TV coverage (as I refuse to pay for a bunch of TV channels that I never watch anyway): Welcome to Cycling TV — Cycling TV
The content is actually what I would expect - and absolutely to my satisfaction. But the design (both interaction and visual) leaves much to desire. Why do I have to login everytime? Why can't it just remember who I am? Cookies have been invented a long time ago (and one of the (many) reasons Amazon has become so popular). And when I'm logged in: why does it not remember which Channels I have subscribed to? Oh! And why can't I see which channel I have currently selected?
I could go on but will not, except for noting the fact that it is really silly constructing a website that does not fit in a 1024x768 pixel resolution (and then even less in a 800x600 pixel resolution). According to www.thecounter.com there are still 12% of users running 800x600 (admittedly most of these are probably over 60 and not necessarily hard core internet TV users). But 52% still use a resolution of 1024x768. And you get to scroll horizontally!!! This has been a "no-go" from day 1. Even if it is only a silly banner ad hiding out there on the right.
