If their ads work on Boxee it shouldn't be the content providers. If they can come up with a better media center product than Boxee let them try, but they should still be trying to get their content to the largest audience possible. Makes no sense... I wish they would declare their reasons in clearer terms.

I just couldn't find an email address for you. :-) I was looking at the accordion script you wrote up on nettuts and wondered if you've ever tried (or considered trying) embedding nested accordions? I have some content that doesn't want to be a tree, but that has more than one level of content. I remember doing this with Ext last summer, and I know of one prototype/scriptaculous script that does nesting. But I prefer the CSS-centered approach you've taken. If you haven't but know of anyone who has, give me a shout please. Thx, Leland Hi,
