Talking Re: [TBA]: Comprehensive Video Archiving

I suppose that means that TBA would have to have an income stream in first place, so it might not work out.

On a related note, I personally wouldn't mind seeing some banners or other ads on TBA if I knew it meant more money for you guys. Of course I'm using Firefox with Adblock so I don't see many ads in the first place. But Chief Delphi has a few banners, so I don't think more advertising on TBA would be a bad thing if it meant the financial flexibility to do more stuff.
I know as a startup business, being able to do an event without compensation currently just isn't feasible. I would love to be able to webcast/record an event.

Maybe having a donation system were teams can donate to a fund that is used to help support whoever does an events video. Another idea is that a higher definition(higher than webcast quality) video DVD could be sold to support future event recordings.
