In addition, video will be available throughout the weekend and all season long (on delay) via the ISU:

It will be the first time that video of all Short Track World Cup events will be available free of charge. This season viewers can watch the Samsung ISU World Cup Short Track series via a delayed broadcast stream link from the front page of ISU’s institutional site (on the site shortly after the event). Highlights of semi finals and finals will also be available. Based on the popularity of preliminary video streaming last season, the ISU expects several hundreds of thousands of spectators to keep up with the 2007/2008 action in this way.
