[3389.30 --> 3389.74] Aww. |
[3390.62 --> 3391.06] Okay. |
[3391.64 --> 3394.68] So, Facebook scores a deal to live stream major league soccer matches. |
[3394.76 --> 3396.92] That, and I'm pretty sure nobody cares about MLS. |
[3400.22 --> 3401.30] I think John does. |
[3401.86 --> 3405.62] Well, yeah, but John cares about every sporting league on earth. |
[3405.62 --> 3407.58] Like, you could, hey, John. |
[3407.80 --> 3408.10] Yeah. |
[3408.32 --> 3409.78] Do you watch professional cricket? |
[3411.50 --> 3411.84] No. |
[3412.16 --> 3412.70] Would you? |
[3413.52 --> 3413.78] No. |
[3414.08 --> 3414.66] He says no. |
[3414.78 --> 3415.02] Okay. |
[3415.18 --> 3415.72] So, okay. |
[3415.72 --> 3416.32] So, no cricket. |
[3416.42 --> 3416.70] All right. |
[3416.74 --> 3417.08] Never mind. |
[3417.18 --> 3417.78] I take it back. |
[3418.74 --> 3419.14] Wrong. |
[3419.14 --> 3419.98] But, like, okay. |
[3420.94 --> 3421.38] Okay. |
[3421.38 --> 3424.92] A sport that's interesting to Americans, though. |
[3425.74 --> 3431.02] I guarantee you he follows not only, like, the top league, like, the national league, but |
[3431.02 --> 3434.08] he follows, like, college and, like, the... |
[3434.08 --> 3438.58] To be fair, like, a lot of the college stuff that he follows is because he went to Duke. |
[3438.74 --> 3439.28] That's true. |
[3439.36 --> 3440.92] He follows his college specifically. |
[3441.06 --> 3444.06] And I think that's much of a, a much more significant thing in the States. |
[3444.36 --> 3444.62] Yeah. |
[3444.70 --> 3444.94] Oh, yeah. |
[3444.98 --> 3446.42] Here, that's, like, super not a thing. |
[3446.42 --> 3449.86] Like, I, like, I think UBC has a hockey team. |
[3449.96 --> 3450.92] Go Thunderbirds. |
[3451.00 --> 3452.36] I think that's what they're called. |
[3454.52 --> 3454.84] Yay. |
[3455.28 --> 3456.96] Let's do the, do the Thunderbird wave. |
[3458.30 --> 3458.80] No, no. |
[3458.94 --> 3459.56] That's not, no. |
[3459.60 --> 3461.16] You gotta, you gotta do the wave. |
[3461.64 --> 3462.52] You gotta do your... |
[3462.52 --> 3463.38] I was doing the Thunderbird. |
[3463.38 --> 3464.02] In your left hand. |
[3464.04 --> 3465.16] This was the Thunderbird wave. |
[3465.26 --> 3465.66] That's a thing? |
[3465.66 --> 3466.16] I'm not fully in frame. |
[3466.48 --> 3467.76] I don't know, but I'm a bird. |
[3468.16 --> 3469.36] That doesn't look like a Thunderbird. |
[3469.42 --> 3471.26] That looks like a frickin' Nancy bird. |
[3471.26 --> 3472.26] Yeah, it's not a car. |
[3474.26 --> 3475.46] It's not a car, Linus. |
[3475.46 --> 3482.46] So, Facebook has secured the rights to stream at least 22 live Major League Soccer regular season matches in English in 2017, |
[3482.88 --> 3490.84] and to enhance the video content with various interactive elements, like Facebook-specific commentators, interactive graphics, fan Q&A, and polling features. |
[3490.84 --> 3507.52] Basically, the reason that the headline is, like, the nail in the TV coffin, is that the money in advertising is going to online platforms, online companies like Facebook and Google and the like, |
[3507.52 --> 3520.60] and it's gotten to the point where they're getting very close to being capable of buying the rights to things like broadcasting live sports. |
[3520.74 --> 3523.68] I don't think you guys talked about this last week, but YouTube TV. |
[3523.68 --> 3524.86] Yep. |
[3524.86 --> 3540.18] They have, I think, 40 channels that would include stuff like live sports and just broadcast television, and they've bought up the rights to this stuff, and people are saying that, yeah, TV is in massive trouble because of this. |
[3540.58 --> 3549.10] Because not only do they have 40 channels, it's only $35 a month compared to a cable subscription, which up here, I think, averages between $80 and $100 a month. |
[3549.32 --> 3549.46] Yep. |
[3549.46 --> 3550.04] Something like that. |
[3550.04 --> 3550.64] I wouldn't know. |
[3550.64 --> 3551.64] I've never paid for one. |
[3551.80 --> 3555.40] I have a bundle that's, like, really discounted. |
[3555.52 --> 3561.00] But, yeah, I think a standard, like, decent cable package is between $60 and $100. |
[3561.70 --> 3561.96] Yeah. |
[3562.10 --> 3571.32] So, basically, the point is, and I see Facebook as a, I see what Facebook's doing as a bigger threat than what YouTube's doing, |
[3571.48 --> 3579.30] where, as far as I can tell, Facebook's approach here seems to be give the content for free, |
[3579.30 --> 3590.94] like, spend the buckets and buckets of cash that you make by advertising to your user base, something you're already doing through other media, through other methods anyway. |
[3591.16 --> 3591.24] Yeah. |
[3591.24 --> 3593.86] Keep people on the site. |
[3594.30 --> 3601.08] Drive up more interaction by having this content, basically eating the cost of the content to get more data from you. |
[3601.34 --> 3610.48] Whereas I think YouTube is sort of in between that, where they're trying to get a more traditional subscription fee from you. |
[3610.48 --> 3617.24] With that said, I don't think that it's impossible that Facebook would try and get you to pay for a subscription at some point in the future either. |
[3618.02 --> 3620.12] Twitter did a similar thing. |
[3620.48 --> 3628.02] I think this was just last year with the National Football League, the NFL, where they're doing some of the games. |
[3628.72 --> 3630.22] And I believe it's a similar thing. |
[3630.32 --> 3631.60] I don't think that you have to pay. |
[3631.66 --> 3632.42] I haven't tried it. |
[3632.42 --> 3633.86] But I don't think you have to pay. |
[3633.96 --> 3635.42] I think they're just eating the cost on that. |
[3636.82 --> 3638.08] Dun, dun, dun. |
[3639.50 --> 3640.50] Oh, my gosh. |
[3641.58 --> 3643.12] Pizza Hut smart shoes. |
[3643.28 --> 3645.66] The original article here is from Slash Gear. |
[3646.22 --> 3647.66] Let's go ahead and bring that up. |
[3649.30 --> 3651.52] They do look amazing, by the way. |
[3651.68 --> 3653.30] I would wear these. |
[3653.30 --> 3660.28] One of the stranger wearables, entirely advertisement focused, Pizza Hut smart shoes. |
[3662.88 --> 3664.28] The shoes are high tops. |
[3664.38 --> 3665.76] They refer to them as pie tops. |
[3665.96 --> 3667.66] Only 64 pairs are being made. |
[3668.40 --> 3673.54] All of the pairs will be given to the media and individuals considered to be influencers. |
[3673.76 --> 3674.56] Can we get some? |
[3674.56 --> 3675.04] Can we get one? |
[3675.16 --> 3675.74] I want one. |
[3676.40 --> 3680.06] We actually have a piece of content planned soon called wearables that aren't crap. |
[3681.38 --> 3682.84] Although I don't necessarily. |
[3682.84 --> 3683.16] Okay. |
[3683.58 --> 3687.26] I don't want to burn bridges with Pizza Hut as a potential future sponsor. |
