ABC streaming shows in HD

It looks like ABC has started streaming shows in HD resolution (720p).  I checked out an episode of Lost last night and I was actually pretty impressed with the quality.  Aside from the fact that you can’t do a true full screen I could see this being a very desirable alternative to P2P networks when your HTPC misses a show.

But the improvement we’re most excited about is the addition of the new HD channel! It’s currently a beta release and there are some minimum computer requirements you’ll need to satisfy to get the best experience (those requirements are listed in the player). But, if you do, the quality is really superb and hopefully it’s a big enough sampling of your favorite shows to keep you excited as we wait for the new Fall season (there are some really cool new shows on the way).
