BroadbandMotorsports.com Launches Today

BroadbandMotorsports.com is the first-ever, video portal and social network dedicated exclusively to motorsports enthusiasts.

Seattle, WA (PRWEB) June 20, 2007 -- BroadbandMotorsports was launched today by the creators of broadbandsports.com, the #1 extreme sports video sharing and social network.

Initially covering 15 different sports like car racing, rally racing, dirt biking, motorcycle racing and snowmobiling, the site combines thousands of user and professional videos with deep social networking tools, enabling users to not only display their profiles and interests but to see who's currently online, what others are watching and who shares your same interests.

We're creating the world's largest library of sports programming and empowering users to participate in the creation and discovery of that content

Building on the success of broadbandsports.com, the website allows viewers to create their own "Me TV" channel, while easily communicating with friends and connecting to other users with similar interests.

In addition to basic profile information the site allows users to define their "ride" and subscribe to various motorsports-specific news feeds.

Unlike most other social networks and video sharing sites, BroadbandMotorsports.com, allows users to simply state their interests and then click that interest (or location) to see other members who share in it. No setting up groups or scrolling profiles. Just fill-in your interests and click it to see who else shares it.

Another unique feature is the site's points rewards program. By interacting with the site, users automatically earn points towards free music and prizes. In this way frequent members are recognized and rewarded for their loyalty. See the Rewards Leaderboard here: http://motorsports.broadbandsports.com/dev/earnRewardsWeekly

Other standard features include dozens of sports channels or user-create video channels, or search for content by keyword. Videos can be commented on, rated and saved as favorites. Users can tag videos and most videos contain location and music soundtrack tags as well. While watching videos, users can also see the other videos from the producer, similar videos and what others are watching right now.

BroadbandMotorsports.com was launched to make sports video programming, traditionally under-served by TV and video rental markets, more readily available. "We're creating the world's largest library of sports programming and empowering users to participate in the creation and discovery of that content," said Greg Prosl, founder of BroadbandMotorsports.com. Prosl recently sold his Webby Award winning, MountainZone.com to Demand Media.
