can CHICK or anyone else confirm...

that the ASC will be on payperview?
a definite YES or NO answer would be appreciated.
If this upcoming webcast is gonna be slow and choppy like the olympia webcast, or have a retarded side view like the ironman with audio problems...i don't want to see it.
I just prefer the ol' big screen and couch as opposed to the desk and computer screen. money is not a problem, i'll pay to get a good clear show.

Arnold: " This computer webcast is for girly-men...hahaha"
Dexter: "lol"

If it was on PPV, we wouldn't be webcasting it.

Sounds good. I'll watch it.

The webcast is a good idea. You don't want to take a chance on breaking the PPV record for lowest buyrate, currently held by "David Hasslehoff Live in Germany."

Chapman Media Group has really stepped up their game!

Condor · « **Reply #8 on:** February 19, 2007, 08:49:11 AM »

Just to clarify--

There is no PPV event available to purchase on TV? Only the webcast?

yeah with wicked side camera shots during the ironman for a few endless minutes at a time. we really see the cheek and elbow development in these shots...outstanding

they better fix that crap for the arnold.

Webcasting is harder than you think, aside from all the computer techo, we then have to sinc-up with the house for the sound, etc.....much harder than t.v.

There are link up problems, signal problems, wifi, internet, etc.....THEN, people have to have a computer that supports getting it....you would be surprised to know that most people are still running on 56K...

With the success of YouTube, IMO, in the next couple of years, most everyone is gonna go to broadband. The future for webcasts looks bright.

There is no PPV this year for the Arnold. The UPC fight in Columbus about 4 blocks away is the same night, that will be on PPV.

Men's prejuding stats at 12pm Columbus time.
Men's Final's start at 7pm Columbus time.

so if it's so hard and complicated to set up (which i know it can be), why don't you put it on PPV? atleast there there's a fee for viewers and you can make some better profit aside from advertising...
i'd pay 19.99 or 24.99 whatever...you never get bandwith issues, quality issues, audio feed problems on PPV, i just think it's worth going that way and save headaches.

on olympia weekend i was ready to drive to Hardbody ent. head office and kill somebody with that lame excuse for an olympia broadcast.

don't worry chic, i won't come to get you if the ASC broadcast is messed up! you've got Italiano blood in you like me!

I dont know anything gayer than actaully buying or purchasing a Bodybuilding event hahahah
That shit has the entertainment value of an amateur woman's golf tournament. I would rather practice reading the dictionary upside down. They need to make it more interesting like Poker.

Collossus, you are a f*cking groupie.

You say some gay shit.

There is no money in PPV. The profits are very minimal or none at all for these type of events. Very expensive to do PPV. The webcast is a great idea actually. Chic is it possible tohave a roaming camera on the webcast to do like the expo and other sites at the Arnold. I liked the Arnold when I went. It was great and allot of fun. The expo is really neat.
