We are Linux fans. And we also wanna watch ABC\'s TV shows, such as Lost, for free, legally. So we are very glad that ABC has a service called \"full episodes\", which allow us to watch shows online for free. But we are lack of proper Linux plug-in for our browser. Did ABC forget us Please, don\'t disappoint us. Now BBC has begun to carry out Firefox video streaming plug-in for Linux user, as well as other support to Linux. We think that both of us don\'t wanna see that we are \"forced\" to watch the video not of ABC. ABC, please develop proper video streaming plug-in for browsers on Linux. Regards, a group of Linux users

one hundred people signed up and I honestly keep refreshing the page because it feels like a glitch or something crazy. I remember sitting at my desk just hoping for maybe five people to agree with me about the streaming issues and now here we are looking at this number which is just wild.

We are ticking up toward a hundred signatures and honestly the momentum is starting to feel real even if my browser is acting up again. If you know anyone else using Linux who is tired of the black box error messages please send them this link right now because I really want to hit that triple digit mark before I head out for coffee.

Seriously. I use ubuntu and have to hunt for bootleg versions of shows that you have for free on your site. Just make it work.

Would love to watch Lost legally but the current player just gives me an error every time. Please fix this.

Fed up with having to dual boot my laptop just to catch up on my favorite shows. Way too much hassle.
