Writing on the Globe and Mail’s hockey blog about the deal Google and the NHL announced yesterday, James Mirtle has a little detail that I had missed:
To celebrate its 89th season and this increased access to video content, the NHL will be offering its content for free — without ads — for the first two weeks of November.
So, will there be a charge after that point, or will there just be ads? If they start charging, then my excitement over the deal will be gone. I wouldn’t mind ads so much, though, as long as they were just text ads on the side or something, and not video ads that would add to an already long load time.
