And because our digital broadband broadcasts are delivered over a dedicated, video-enabled content delivery network, the University of Tennessee at Martin’s fans can watch their favorite team and players from any location, when they want, and on any technology that receives broadband— broadband TV and PC and in the future, the next generation of PDAs and wireless phones.”
