************************************************************** Net Happenings - From Educational CyberPlayGround ************************************************************** From: "David P. Dillard" <jwne@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Mon, 3 Mar 2003 19:48:12 -0500 (EST) Major League Baseball is offering a large number of spring training games (referred to as Grapefruit League games for many of them which originate from Florida) streaming audio broadcasts over the internet for free. MLB.com GamedayAudio <http://mlb.mlb.com/NASApp/mlb/mlb/audio/gda_2003/index.jsp> After the regular season starts, there will be a montly charge for access to audio broadcasting of baseball games. There is also an archive of games from 2002 that appears to require a paid account to access. If this archive remains in place as years pass, an oral history collection of professional baseball games from the United States and Canada will provide a historical record with presence of reporter of what has transpired on the playing field along with any commentary about the environment of these events as they transpire. This type of complete archiving of games in sports would open up tremendous vistas for those looking at past events in sports contests, both in terms of detail of events and the emotional content as key plays are made in games. *************************************************************** MUSIC And COPYRIGHT LAW How much do you understand about what you can download and use in the classroom.
