The event is held at Games Convention in Leipzig Germany which is
the largest games expo in Europe. Expectations are high, where they
are expecting more then 150.000 people to attend the event.
eSports Media group ( EMG ) and Octoshape have colaborated earlier
in similar activities during a open beta test for the WEG masters
event in China earlier this year, that was streamed live on
www.esport.org . Now they have taken a step further introducing a
totaly new distribution method with an other partner joining the
boat in Radio ITG . This time there will be multiplied channels
around the world through specific website partners that will deliver
the content and technology platform. |

"This will be very
interesting test, we have earlier reviewed the Octoshape technology
for sometime now and I must say the more familiar I get with it the
more amazed I am.I have been working with esports for a long time
with teams, event organizers, media ,sponsors and there is one
common problem, demand is higher than supply. My dream is to be able
to deliver esports to as many people as possible, and Octoshape
grants us that possiblity. Therefore its important for us to
distribute the content in an accessible way through out partners.
Streaming has been known for beeing a quite limited media where high
audience is equal to high costs. With the bit torrent similar
technology from Octoshape p2p gridnetwork this is no more."
Said Johan "vesslan" Ryman CEO of EMG
"I also must say it will great fun to have the oppertunity to work
together with Radio ITG , I have known Marcus "DJWheat" since summer
2005 where we had a small cooperation in delivering ESWC 2005
together and that was a nice experience opening the door for this,
and working together like this I think is very important for
bringing esports further . I think alot of companies and
organisations in esports are trying to protect market share in a
market that really doesn`t exist yet, We strongly belive in working
together with other esports organisations is a keystone in rapid
esports developtment."
Paul "redye" Chaloner, Project Manager for Inside the Game had this
to say about the new arrangement.
"We are very excited to be working with award winning technology and
whilst this is a test agreement, we are looking forward to working
with Octoshape to make this a successful test. We would also be very
interested in getting as much feedback from those who tune in over
the weekend via our forums."
