Baduk TV
Baduk TV (바둑 TV)
Baduk TV (BTV) is one of two Korean television channels showing Go programmes, including commentary on live games.
They'll often go over variations by super-imposing stones on the board of a live game, making it followable even with the language barrier. Chris Ball

Historical Illegal Use of Baduk TV
Baduk TV is naturally free (or included in cable fee maybe) to Korea's telivision audience, but their Internet TV service has a minimal charge.
In the past, a user with the URL of the video could watch the channel without paying.
It is, of course, illegal to do this. Nor is it ethical to consume a non-free resource (BadukTV's bandwidth) without compensation.
Please do not post any such URL here on SL.
News
Bill: The Baduk school has posted the following announcement:
<< 2: We have almost finished the contract to offer our students Video on Demand (VoD). We will be broadcasting top quality Video on Korean and international baduk events, tournaments, games reviews, actual games, etc. We will start testing on monday May 9. >>
It sounds like they have made an arrangement with Baduk TV. This might be a good deal. :-)
Malweth: Baduk School now has episodes taken from Baduk TV available for Download, on DVD, or via streaming video. This is currently €1 per episode (plus I think €10 for a DVD). Funds can be distributed through Paypal.
