My email:

I am emailing to demand a refund for the Cornell-Union mens ECAC hockey playoff game of 3/15/08.  The webcast audio and video have repeatedly failed throughout this webcast, as they have through other B2 webcasts throughout this and other years.


This quality of service plagued Cornell viewers all last year prior to the Cornell AD dropping B2 at our request.  Many of us are now petitioning the ECAC and NCAA to remove B2 from the list of providers for any future league products.

B2's products, customer support, and pricing model are seriously inferior when compared with even the barely tolerable of web-based products.  We look forward to the day your management either elects to provide quality service or files for bankruptcy.

Trotsky,

While I agree with you about B2's terrible performance during the playoffs, wasn't the provider we hated so much over the last couple years CSTV? I don't think B2 had anything to do with it.[/quote]

Yes, for the last two years, Cornell used CSTV which is a separate entity from B2.

 Clarkson and St. Lawrence are using B2 as their internet service provider this year and I watched both North Country games without any issues.

As we all know, issues at the rink (i.e. people stepping on the cords) etc. do affect whether we get video feed or not.

This is the first year that the ECAC has gone to a single service provider for the opening and QF rounds. It might be worth writing a letter detailing your frustrations with B2 to the ECAC. I wrote one explaining my disappointment with plan and how much it was going to cost etc. If more people shared their experiences in a constructive manner, then perhaps next year they might come up with a better plan.

"Union fans finally starting to get loud with 6 minutes to go ..."

And that passes
