Over the course of the last 2 years, FXOpen has been looking for something that fits with our objectives and goals to generate more exposure via e-sports.
We have noticed that the exposure to new traders specifically from eSports has given us a much higher return than we ever expected. It took over 12 months for us to find a stable figure on that return is but we have finally reached that point.
Over the last few weeks, FXOpen e-Sports has started doing a complete overhaul of all of its business within e-Sports. This was made possible by the new traders that have started using the FXOpen platform specifically from the e-Sports scene (who are actually very good at it). Eliminating things that don't work and adding things that are now possible due to recent changes. These include practice schedules and procedures for players (as they have been slumping hard recently) to completely overhauling our online events system. Effectively any concern we had of making our events break even is now gone due to the e-Sports traders!
Along with this, we have managed to obtain the YouTube.com/live streaming platform for our players and events. This will allow us to capture our audience for all video media in one place. Hitting the subscribe button on YouTube will allow you to get a reminder or update on all of our streams, VODs, random Leenock videos and anything else that is submitted via our YouTube. While this isn't much different from the Twitch and Own3d systems, we have identified that YouTube is a better platform for us when you take the element of cash out of the picture.
We have also been fortunate enough to be allowed to do some testing of the YouTube services such as the advanced CMS (content management system) back office, which is by far the best system we have worked with to date.
So, as of today 26/06/2012, the player streaming schedule will be split into 3 sections with 3 times for our players. The schedule as of today looks like below:

NOTE
** Stream time may be reduced to 3 hours from 4 depending on player feedback
***Mondays may be used to do AMA's or players commentating in english/general shenanigans
Please be aware there may be times when the microphone on the stream will need to be muted as there may be sensitive information discussed during the course of the stream which is not for viewer consumption (it may hurt someone’s chances in GSL or our team in GSTL etc.)
Our regular events will be brought to you on the Youtube.com/live channel. We will not have any subscription model for our events. We will slowly but steadily add new pieces of equipment to our event streams and new opportunities may arise as we learn how to utilize the equipment to its full potential.
In the meantime please do enjoy our player and event streams, and we look forward to seeing you in chat.
