![]() Another faraway watcher who was disappointed when Capital OTB restricted access to its content. Really great shows that have been completely isolated from input by others.
Does Capital go door-to-door and restrict non-account holders from watching its over-the-air content in upstate New York? Sorry, couldn't resist that jab!

![]() Capital instituted the restriction upon discovering that a huge % of the bandwidth it was paying for was being used by people who were not betting there. It costs nothing to have an account and out of state customers are welcome.
Many ADW's restrict video to customers betting $X per month. Capital has no minimums. Capital also offers many contests and events online for account holders only. If you bet online with Capital you recieve track odds.

![]() Cap OTB ad rates are based on TV only. When the streaming became available the charge was not increased to represent the increased exposure.
Unlike TV, bandwidth becomes more costly the more people view. Once we have a contract for TV placement, if 1 person or 10k watch, the price is the same. Not so with streaming video.

![]() There's no reason they couldn't adjust their ad rates to reflect online viewership, unless it was so pathetic that an increase was not warranted.

![]() The decision was made based on the idea that the stream would be restricted to account holders.

There are only a few states that don't allow I don't believe SC is restricted. We stream several tracks per day except NYRA + live morning programming year round. The restrictions were applied due to bandwidth use. Simply put, wager with us and we'll give you the programming plus.
