On-demand television for the horse lover: An overview for the Content Provider
Nicker truly is the first Internet-based, on-demand television network targeted to an international equestrian audience. Created by horse people for horse people, Nicker offers a wide selection of television channels each dedicated to a different equestrian theme or subject. Each channel will provide a variety of programs and on-going series which will change and expand on a regular basis. Viewers to Nicker can 1) watch for free - with short embedded sponsor ads, 2) download individual programs to rent or buy, or 3) order customized DVDs for home delivery.
Nicker invites all content providers and producers of equestrian programming to submit their programs as part of the Nicker broadcast platform and to take advantage of one of the most exciting and innovative opportunities available in the Internet and broadcast worlds today. With an acquisition policy and financial structure that provides all content providers a direct, monthly share in all revenues generated by their programs, Nicker provides a brand new distribution avenue for producers on a no-cost basis.
What does Nicker Offer to Content Providers?
The worldwide television industry is currently undergoing a massive upheaval brought on by new technologies and an associated shift in consumer viewing patterns. On-demand programming is now within reach of anyone with a computer and broadband access. With the development of Internet technologies that deliver programming at high-speeds, and the expanding ability of computers to receive and display that programming, a new era is at hand. Nicker provides a seamless, no-cost entry into this new world for equestrian and horse-related content providers and educators seeking expanded distribution for their programs.
The most important impact of this rapid growth of universal broadband connectivity is that for the first time in the history of television, a program or video message can reach its audience directly, without having to deal with the closed world of traditional television distribution. |

As the primary gatekeepers to television audiences, cable and satellite companies historically have wielded great power in deciding what networks - and therefore, what programs - could reach homes throughout America.
Nicker is at the forefront of this new era - and has developed a universal distribution system for programming or video messages relevant to the equestrian world. It is based upon mutually beneficial relationships among program providers, advertisers, viewers and the industry as a whole.

Nicker is More
Than a Network
It is similar to a cable or satellite company. It is where people go to find the channels they want to watch - except that on Nicker, viewers are able to watch programs on these channels whenever they want to - not when they have to based on a certain time of day. Every program is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week - anywhere in the world.
