Joost, Democracy, VeohTV, Zattoo… The list of Internet TV apps being published lately doesn’t end. Babelgum is one of them, another online TV client that claims to be the perfect application to “watch whatever you want whenever you want”.
However, the truth is quite different. Babelgum is still in beta, and you can tell especially by the lack of content. There are several channels devoted to music, documentaries and news, and you can also watch your own videos, but I had a hard time trying to find something really interesting to watch. This may also be due to the fact that Babelgum is trying to set itself as a promotional platform for video content producers and doesn’t just rip content off commercial TV channels.
In all I think it’s a very promising app with lots of potential. It features a slick black interface and it’s very easy to use. Let’s give them some more developing time and see what happens.
