    qualifying...... free for view = free of charge
    after that, not mention that is free = pls pay to view
    video on demand = definitely need to pay.....;)
    same as the traffic sign, no u-turn sign, cant make u-turn.....:p

    coming to a court near you...
    At least you can see the qualifying for free and decide if it's worth paying to watch the tournament proper

    All England 2008 Free Streaming on Tue 3rd March Only

    Dear All

    After many months of discussions and planning, I am delighted to announce the launch of our new broadband TV service - planetbadminton.tv. This has been made possible through our relationship with Sunset + Vine, our current TV Sales and Production partner.

    planetbadminton offers live on demand, pay per view and also access to archive. We will also be launching a subscription service after the All England. It allows anyone, anywhere in the world to view the All England and we are also currently discussing the building of further content with the aim of having one of the best broadband sports channels.

    The web address is www.planetbadminton.tv and this currently lists what we are showing. We kick off with free streaming on Tuesday before Pay per View comes into effect from Wednesday onwards. Please note that due to our current TV contract with Sky, we are unable to broadcast streaming live from the 1/4 finals onwards.

    We have also launched a promo on You Tube which can be seen by clicking onto http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=mj4HfD3Gotw&feature=user

    This is a massive step forwards for us as we continue to develop greater exposure for our sport. It also offers us a significant revenue stream.

    I would also like to take this opportunity to thank everyone, in whatever role you have played, in the preparation of this years All England.

    I can't wait to get to Birmingham on Tuesday and to enjoy another fantastic Championships.

    I look forward to seeing you there.

    Best wishes

    Great choice of sequence for your rolling promo ;)

    Have you decided what your PPV rates are gonna be?
    Must say that PPV is a bit daunting for the early rounds :eek:
