Video on Demand means that you can watch programs that have already been broadcast online whenever you want. This way, if you miss the show you wanted to see because of time zone difficulties, you can watch it later.

I just want to add that I am also a happy gogameguru customer. Living in the eastern US, on demand is way more convenient for me anyway. It is fun every once in a while staying up and trying to watch, but it's unrealistic. Here, the LG coverage went from 12am-6am. BC card cup was the same.

I would also like to reiterate what TKP said in that David is incredibly conscientious. I did not expect an e-mail back when I e-mailed them (it's only a couple of people working the website) and when I did get an e-mail, it was thoughtful and addressed what I had written. These are the early stages and I am happy to support them.

Are the Kifus for the (I can't read Korean) "KB" event that has been airing today available online somewhere? I saw an interesting game and wanted to look at it but have no idea which game it was and was hoping they were posted somewhere.

I am guessing that KB events are Korean Baduk League games. The game records for those games can be found at the league web site (http://kbleague.com/baduk/) as well as on Tygem/Cyberoro/WBaduk sites.

You cannot download the SGF (Korea, as a nation, is fond of bad technology like ActiveX and proprietary file formats...oops, was I ranting?), but you can replay the game in your web browser.

Thanks! It's clear from the front page of that site that it's the right event. Maybe I'll be able find the game from matching up the faces.

I do with gogameguru.

I watch it on my tablet, usually at work so I have it muted, though it doesn't make too much difference.
Though one morning I had it sitting on my counter while I got ready and the announcer was showing this great move, really excited about it
He went through all these different variations that could be done with it, all that kind of stuff, then when the played finaly made his move,
it was close, but not quite as good as the announcers move. The announcer sounded so disappointed.

So BadukTV has just opened Beta for their Video On Demand.

It appears to be free while they add more content http://baduktv.kr/baduk/user/userVod

Their English videos are so bad and I can't stand that squeeky high pitched voice! It's more than one year later and this is the best they can manage? The quality of the work over at gogameguru is 100 times better: http://gogameguru.com/baduk-tv-library/ ... v-english/ I recommend you try them instead.
