PPV for this year's final four MCLA games at Texas Stadium?
Posted: Thu Apr 10, 2008 1:04 pmIn case you have been living under a rock for the last few weeks, CollegeLAX is proud to announce that we will be doing live TV broadcasts of the final four games at Texas Stadium in Dallas this year! LINK:

The four TV games will be Friday night, May 16th and Saturday afternoon/evening, May 17th. (Two MCLA Division 1 Semifinals, MCLA Division 2 final, & MCLA Division 1 final).
To keep things simple - We are going to offer one "tournament pass" that allows you to watch all four games for one set price. The price is for this all-access tournament pass is probably going to be $25 which is slightly over $6 per individual game.
You can watch 1, 2, 3, or 4 games online for this one set price. Those of you that are technically savvy can output the video signal from your computer's video card to watch the games on your big screen TV. (Hopefully, some of you MCLA teams/fans that can't make it to Dallas this year for the festivities will have "tournament watch parties" back at home.)
I'm trying to make this as cheap as possible for all parties involved. However, streaming live sports video over the internet is VERY, VERY, VERY bandwidth intensive and thus expensive. There are also credit card transaction fees to consider.
Based on unique IP addresses, we had 300 - 400 folks listening online to the radio broadcasts last year to the early games with slightly over 600 folks listening to the final Division 1 game (BYU/Oregon champioinship). Just trying to figure out some projected numbers for the PPV webcasts.
Also note - We will be selling DVD's of these four TV games after the tournament here on CollegeLAX again. Those of you that have purchased the DVD's from last year at Pizza Hut Park should have a good idea of what the television coverage will look like this year at Texas Stadium. Except this year's coverage will be even better with a few more bells and whistles.
Thanks for your input.
