Gliding on Discovery Channel

[Charles Petersen]

You can view the Discovery Channel's Daily Planet show about Freedom's Wings
Canada on a broadband connection. The show features the gliding simulator in
a starring role, and is rated 5 star on the web site. To find it go to:
www.discovery.ca
Then click on "Discovery Channel"
Then click on "Broadband" in the box at the top
A new page will open and load a player. When it is loaded, select "Daily
Planet" at the tabs on the top right, and choose the September 15th show.

You'll have to endure a short segment about the effects of Mintos in a
bottle of Diet Coke, but the big feature is on gliding. We have had a
fantastic response to this broadcast.

You can grab the slider and bypass the Mentos segment.....

It says I can't play it in my country, the next-door
neighbor.

I asked them why....

Why is Discovery Broadband only available in Canada?
The programming for Discovery Broadband comes from a variety of
sources: Discovery Canada's production house Exploration Production
Inc., other independent producers, and Discovery Communications Inc. In
all cases we only carry Canadian distribution rights to these programs.


In other words - while we might like to share the video worldwide, we
don't have the right to do so.

Thanks for your interest.


So I assume they filter on IP address......
