BMXvideo.net Joins ISportsTV (istv.com)

“Many of you have heard of a new company called ISportsTv which is coming into the sport of BMX and offering video coverage of all National BMX races in the US and several international events. When it was announced that ISportsTv acquired the video rights to both sanctions, many of you emailed concerns about wether BMXvideo.net would still be able to provide our service of main event coverage on the NET. The answer to that question is YES. BMXvideo.net has joined the ISportsTv team and will not only be providing main event coverage as before but with many new features.”"We did what we could with a limited budget and a 1 or 2 man camera crew. Now that we have joined with ISportsTv we are getting a 6 to 8 man crew, better equipment, traveling to more races, and offering higher quality videos. This is just the tip of the iceberg, ISTV.com offers several other action sports viewing along with music and entertainment! We have been given an opportunity to be part of an exciting new venture that will propel BMX racing coverage to a level never before seen in our industry. From the beginning we here at BMXvideo.net have known that the future of video coverage would be on the internet. ISportsTv recognized that and asked us to join with them and assist in making sure that their BMX racing coverage is the best it can be. What does this mean to our members? Your BMXvideo.net membership will transfer over to ISportsTv’s service as of April 23, 2005. You will not lose any time of your membership while this transition is taking place as BMXvideo.net will remain online. You will be able to save all the videos on our site up until April 23 at which point all content will become a part of ISportsTv and listed on ISTV?s site for viewing. Your username and passwords will remain the same and when your membership expires you will be able to renew your membership with ISportsTv. At the ISTV rates, membership fees will be comparable to BMXvideo.net’s. So basically you are getting a free preview of this great new service. What about our DVDs? BMXvideo.net will no longer be providing Main event DVDs like we did before. However we will be doing the production of event DVDs for each individual sanction. So you can purchase your event DVD directly from your favorite sanction.
