The other day we mentioned an Akimbo review that had concerns about the amount of content available. Engadget now has their own review that states:
Speaking of programming, you might find it a little tough to fill up that hard drive with shows you want to watch. The list of available channels and programs isn't bad, and is growing every month, but anyone expecting Akimbo to duplicate the experience of having 150 channels of digital cable is probably in for some disappointment. The idea is to think of Akimbo as an inexpensive and convenient supplement to what's already out there, and they're targeting niches that traditionally aren't very well served by regular cable and satellite services in hopes that enough people will find something they think is worth paying ten bucks a month to download.
From the reviews we're seeing, Akmibo is interesting product that isn't quite worth the expense of hardware, monthly fees, and individual show fees at this point.
