ESPN3 is an internet video programming network operated by ESPN which offers live webcasts of sports programming. It started in 2005 as ESPN360. The name was changed in April, 2010 to keep it in line with other ESPN channels. Access to ESPN3.com is available only to users of those ISPs which have purchased rights to ESPN3 content for their subscribers. ESPN also gives free access to ESPN3 to users on .edu (colleges and universities) and .mil (U.S. military) domains. Because it’s an online network and not a cable channel, they are able to provide their users with a wider variety of programming than can be watched on-Demand.http://espn.go.com/espn3/

Billy Mays ESPN 360 Commercial
A commercial for ESPN 360 featuring Billy Mayes, the famous infomercial spokesman. Here, he’s selling ESPN 360 in his trademark style of yelling enthusiastically. The commercial parodies infomercials in other ways, such as testimonials from people who can’t act and showing off the product over a blue screen.
