MSN Soapbox, Microsoft's new video site that confusingly takes the MSN name, launches in public beta today. We covered it back in September during the private beta, and there's really not much to add: it's weak, and about a year too late. They have innovated on the interface a little, putting a large Flash player at the top right, but generally we're unimpressed.

We were originally told that MSN Soapbox would occasionally deliver windows Media Player clips, rather than Flash, depending on your setup. We're only seeing Flash, but let us know if you see anything different.
