Video Flood HD kinda reminds me of the utility infielder a baseball team will carry on its roster... Able to play multiple positions and fill a hole in a pinch, but not an everyday player. A utility player needed in the daily lineup for more than the short term, usually has his weaknesses and limitations exposed quickly.
Nevertheless, I love utility players. They're a valuable and important part of the game.
After several days of use, yes, I see Video Flood as a classic utility player. It certainly fills a hole in my roster of TouchPad tablet apps, but isn't strong enough to play every day, meaning it won't replace or unseat my other sources for the same types of video content.
It can play video clips from categories like News, Entertainment and Technology... But it largely replicates what I can access on my Roku HD box or Windows 7 Media Center on my laptop.
When it comes to TV shows and movies, its the same story. There isn't enough "there" to make it an every day player.
Obviously, its biggest virtue is that it is a tablet app... That's what gets it on my roster and will keep it on my roster until that better player come along.
(Note: I have not yet tried the podcast and YouTube features of Video Flood.)
