Neo Sports To Webcast India-Australia Series

Neo Sports has announced that it will provide video on demand (VoD) and live streaming services on their website Neosports.tv, reports Business Standard. They intend to begin with the India-Australia ODI series, and priced as follows: Users need pay Rs 5 on a per event basis, and highlights of every half-an-hour will be available for Rs 30, a day pass will cost Rs 50 and a series pass (7ODI and 1 Twenty20) will be available for Rs 150. Consumers can also avail of all access services live streaming for Rs 100 per match.

I suppose “per event” means per per-ball (per-boundry/wicket?) streaming, which is rather high at Rs. 5. They’re targeting the office going audience, and Indiantelevision quotes CEO Sashi Kalathil as saying that they have seven or eight companies are interested in availing the service for their employees. Neo Sports has spent Rs. 20 million for setting up the website and infrastructure. Also, I wonder what companies like ESPN-STAR Sports (ESS) and Neo Sports are doing about cricket clips on YouTube - like this one of Yuvraj Singh hitting six sixes in an over (and received 1,032,506 views in just a week).

This is a good initiative by Neosports. I see the future of web casting very bright. The internet penetration is increasing so is awareness. early bird gets the prey. Same way Neosports will be in a advantage.

I can't even imagine any company need to spend Rs 20 Million for webcasting. Anyway everything is available on net free or paid even before Neosports officially started webcasting.
If neosports spend that much I think even students who are running webcaste sites are far more clever and intellligent then highly paid people of neosports.
Thanks :)

The Neosports.tv site is powered by the Interactive Scorecards service of Willow.tv

I can't see where Mr.Kalathil has spent Rs. 2 crores…

The interactive scorecards is a very neat service and a great way of following cricket scores, and I am glad Neo is making this available to Indian audience. For a long time Willow.tv has been offering this to North American audience.
