Web TV firm Joost has liquidated its UK arm, according to media reports.
Founded by Niklas Zennstrom and Janus Friis, the creators of Skype and KaZaa, Joost won a lot of investor support early on, but has hit by troubles lately.
In June, the firm switched from a commercial online TV provider to a white label video platform. Last month, chief executive Mike Volpi was forced out by shareholders, as a legal battle between Skype and eBay hit Zennstrom and Friis.
Now, according to a report in the Financial Times, Joost's directors wrapped up UK business earlier this month.
The newspaper reported that the liquidators said Joost still had a "skeleton staff" in London. It still has offices in the US and the Netherlands, where it is based.
Joost could not be reached for comment at the time of publication.
