CNET Editors' review
The word free in the title doesn't mean this Internet video player is freeware. It means you don't have to pay to watch channels of Internet TV. Free Internet TV packs RealMedia and Windows Media decoders into an attractive, easy-to-use interface and offers an automatically updated list of TV channels.
The channels are sorted by country, and you can instantly see the bit rate of each. Thanks to the Favorites feature, you won't have to search for a channel every time. Of course, you can easily do without Free Internet TV if you have Real Player and Windows Media Player installed on your computer--and who doesn't? But Free Internet TV doesn't bury you under a host of settings, and it removes the chore of looking for channels. Those are small but real benefits.
Though it's definitely not a must-have, Free Internet TV is a perfectly adequate way to watch your favorite shows online.

"Okay, I tried it and I'm not impressed."
Version: Free Internet TV 7.1.1
Pros
It's okay. Just not impressive. Or free.
Cons
There's better out there (namely KitePlayer) and it's free, so why should I pay for this when it's not even as good?
Summary
Get KitePlayer. Be happy. :)
