I saw some of the HD youtube videos for the music portions of last year's fanfest and the quality of video and camera work was impressive for any fanfest, much less a smaller community like EVE. As such, I would be all too happy to support it with $20 USD . . . but not if my access to the content is only in real time as it happens and as I just happen to be up and available to view it. If I could have it archived and login to view it whenever I want, I would go for this instantly. I'd even pay an extra $5 for the "archived" access (I don't want to watch it just one time).
However, 20 hours of content spread across two or three days aligned for a time zone that is 6-8 hours ahead of my own during the work week is a difficult proposition. That places almost all of the content to between 6am and 3pm PST, in America. A time when most people are sleeping, commuting, and working. Rebroadcasting it isn't really an acceptable solution, either.
I understand there would be concern for unauthorized distribution of the content, but I think the value to your devoted customers would be much greater.

woulda been a better idea to give the payed option playback options allowing you to see the parts you're interested in later in the day if like me you'll be at work |

Charging money for this is ****ing ******ed.
It would have been awfully cool to tune in and take a look for five minutes to see what it looked like, but no!
Thank you for treating your fanbase (currently the "fan" part declining at a rapid rate) like idiots.

I totaly agree with this. As EVE is a world wide thing it makes good sense to make some accomodation for the various time zones. I managed to tune in to the HD but its so laggy, (and i don't know the cause) its almost useless in that its impossible to follow along. (But i'm trying hard  ) I think a log in accessable archive would be great and would fit my schedule perfectly. And while this doesn't realy fit here, I'd like to see the fanfest moved to a different time of the year. The summer comes to mind, the weather is good for flying, and its easyer to schedule holiday time off work to attend. Atom-Ant. |

Watching some of the presentations, a thought occurs.
I think CCP gets too distracted making skits for fanfest. That's why you keep complaining about things taking a long time. |

Standard definition feed is free and more than adequate for tuning in and taking a look for five minutes, and more. The quality is fine. The option to upgrade to HD is there, for a small fee. I really don't see the problem here. If you object to being treated like an idiot, don't post like one. |

Edited by: J Kunjeh on 27/03/2011 11:59:48 Kudos to CCP for putting this broadcast together for this years Fest. I forked over the $20 for the HD stream and was lucky enough to be able to watch about 90% of it (many people's schedules wouldn't allow for that because it's live, so I support adding some way for subscribers to view what they missed at a later time for next years broadcast). Great production values, solid high quality stream, inclusive coverage of various aspects of the event, and great hosts! Well worth the $20! |

Some clever people have stolen the stream and posted it here. |
