		However, according to Friis, this didn’t deter anybody from dealing with Joost: its revenue model is just so easy that you can’t help but see the money rolling in.
		Friis says the company is convinced that the advertising model is the right one, but it doesn’t rule out introducing a pay-per-view feature for special content in the future.
		While Friis has certainly mastered the art of not revealing a great deal to journalists, we reckon it’s likely that there’s another reason for the decision to work on a browser-based version: streaming video on the web is set to significantly improve now that Adobe has incorporated the H.264 codec into Flash Player 9.

	Janus Friis \| BoomTown \| AllThingsD
		I was teasing, of course, but do have doubts about the company–founded by the well-known geek duo Janus Friis and Niklas Zennström–as being too closed and destination oriented, as well as playing in a very crowded field.
		By the way, Friis and Zennström are the pair who disrupted the phone industry with Skype and also created the controversial peer-to-peer file-sharing service Kazaa, used by many to illegally download–yes–copyrighted entertainment content.
		Maybe that’s OK for shaggier services like Skype and Kazaa, also founded by Joost’s founders, Janus Friis and Niklas Zennström, but watching premium video requires a more reliable service.
