All getting too much for me. Time for my cocoa.

It’s ok. You collect credits and use them to view a variety of sports of your choosing.

I signed up longbangers if anyone would be so kind to follow us - there's the ability to upload short videos so we're trying to think of ideas to give more from the podcast.

So they get stuff before Hibs TV, which I pay a lot of money each year as a U.K. subscriber

I’m treating my subscription this year as a donation. Perhaps understandably in the current situation there is not really much new content unique to it other than complete matches the following day. The pitch side highlights, which in terms of actual incidents covered are light years ahead of the regular ones, don’t even seem to make it onto HibsTv.

My expectation is that as a platform for domestic fans HibsTV may disappear to be merged into the single view/sign on access. The question will be is will subscription only content be delivered such that it encourages domestic subscribers to continue to pay for that additional content. I doubt there is significant income from domestic subscribers at present.

It will be used to say nice things about Hibs TV.

Oops!

A website called Dugout (https://dugout.com/) has been doing something similar for a little while.

It doesn’t compete with the club’s tv channel. All the essential match coverage, interviews, etc will still be on there.

What they do is put up bits and pieces of behind the scenes and archive content. Extras for super fans that want more than just club tv or bite size snippets that might be suited to the younger demographic.

It’s free to view but the club gets cash out of the adverts placed.

I think this sounds like pretty much the same thing.

You mean like stuff we used to get on Hibs TV?

I think we might see shorter versions of full length interviews on Recast, so Hibs TV subscribers get the longer version. That kind of thing.

Good to see the club trying something different to try to increase revenue. I suspect that the number of Hibs TV subscribers is pretty low compared to the number of fans we have so they have to try to monetise the all the content they create. They are trying something to use the content and get some income.

I'd imagine if people want to watch it all without adverts they can pay for the subscription, if they can't afford to pay for Hibs TV or don't want another annual subscription and can bear watching a few adverts then they can use this and the club still gets money.

Hopefully it works for us and we get a decent income out of it.

I think it must be in it’s infancy. There are a few Hibs related videos available and some from other football teams and other sports. They give you credits to get you started and then you can earn more by inviting friends to join and by looking at adverts but so far I haven’t found any. Looks promising tho’.

Hopefully won’t cannibalise Hibs TV although I.

Must admit I cancelled Hibs TV as I wasn’t using it and opted for the PPV. Maybe this is a group of folks that it could be aimed at ?
