Two weeks after Viacom ordered Google to take down more than 100,000  
allegedly copyrighted videos from YouTube, the media giant is about  
to sign a content deal with Joost, the Wall Street Journal is  
reporting tonight.    Joost, the P2P online television service soon  
to launch from the founders of Skype, is purportedly aimed to  
challenge traditional TV networks more than it is YouTube.  User  
generated content will not appear on Joost.  The company has put  
together a number of smaller deals, including one with Warner, but a  
Viacom deal would be its biggest yet.
