[personal] RE: [Husker] PPV Info (fwd)

[Skylar Dodds]

Hello Husker Fans,

MN> There aren't six-figure (per game) rights payments associated with those
MN> events.  And technically the Huskers are 21st in both polls.  :-)

On top of that, the fact that the Big XII signed an agreement
preventing any football games from being broadcast via the Internet
sure doesn't help much. If they had that option available I would
think many teams would jump on it. But then again, how would ESPN make
money off that?

I would think if you ran the Internet broadcasts similar to
Pay-Per-View it would work pretty well. For those of you who haven't
watched an Internet broadcast of any of the other sports, the quality
has vastly improved and I think it's a legitimate option.

Oh well, that's my opinion.  I think the contract doesn't expire for
a while, so for now it will just be my opinion.
