wave fan, from your link:

Fans won't be able to watch games online until after they have appeared on TV. NBC plans to sell TV-like video ads that will appear with the video downloads. Wavexpress will get a share of the ad revenue.

Some advertisers such as a footwear manufacturer or sporting goods store might be willing to pay top dollar if it means reaching a select audience interested in a specific sport, says Altman Vilandrie's Hurd.

"That is almost a must buy," he said. "Where else could you advertise your equipment to reach such a targeted audience?"

Nice article.

So revenue could be based on a percentage of NBC negotiated adverising rates rather than per download?

Vista limitation

In the article SKS says they limited it to Vista due to its capabilities to handle video and other feeds. I was not aware that Vista allowed something like this to occur which could not be achieved on XP for example.
