In Case You Don't Think Streaming Is Our Future

...CKRM, Regina, PD Willie Cole sent along this note:

During Saturdays "Rider" broadcast, we took 12,970 unique hits to the CKRM streaming audio, beginning with the 2:30 pregame and ending at 10 pm. We peaked at 6,786 concurrent connections, this lasted from 5pm thru 8 pm.

Most interesting is that most of the 6 thousand connections stayed on line through to the end of the post game call in show at 10 pm, also of note, most of the connections were from out of province and a number of the long distance calls to the post game show were from out of province internet listeners.

Lets hope the CBC stays locked out for a while...
