America’s Horse, July 15, 2009 – The American Quarter Horse Association is now broadcasting America’s Horse TV on the Internet at http://americashorse.tv/. America’s Horse TV provides free and convenient equine television programming.
“AQHA recognizes the new trend in television,” said Tom Persechino, AQHA executive director of marketing and communications. “No longer do people make an appointment to stay home and watch their favorite show. Instead, they digitally record the show or go online to watch it at their convenience. In response to the growing online television market, AQHA is getting on board to provide everyone with the same access to America’s Horse TV.”
All videos use Flash technology, like YouTube, allowing viewers to instantly watch without waiting for a download. America’s Horse TV is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week, with no need for a special cable provider or subscription. All that’s needed is a computer and Internet access.
