DAVE.TV Lets Consumers Create their own Broadband TV Channels

Broadband video distribution company, DAVE.TV (the company's name is an acronym for "Distributed Audio Video Entertainment Television"), has launched a service it is calling the "Social Broadcast Network" (SBN), which allows end-users not only to upload and broadcast their own videos, but to create their own TV channels (which
DAVE.TV is calling "MyChannels") featuring their own content, content from other DAVE.TV users, and ad-supported content from DAVE.TV's network of content partners. The service thus enables end-users to create playlists showcasing their own creations and their tastes in media, and share them with their family and friends.
According to the company, SBN is designed to capitalize on the success of user-generated content services, such as YouTube, and of social networking sites, such as MySpace.
