Just to name a few: Mass uploads, editorial control, control of content, flexibility.

The idea behind TBAtv is to have a "one stop" scouting site for all things related to FIRST. It will eventually include tagged images, match results, and most importantly video from all of the events in streaming or downloadable form.

We are in talks with a hosting site now. If all goes to plan, a beta of the site with match data and videos from last year's championships and winter warzone should be up by the weekend.

We'll keep you posted.
