Good news: Canada’s public broadcaster CBC (Canadian Broadcasting Corporation) joined M***n***’s recently launched Content Distribution service in order to distribute the new TV Show Canada’s Next Great Prime Minister.

The show, which premiered last Sunday, will be published annualy on ******** one day after the TV airtime. The copies are of high quality (720×486 XViD) and come without any DRM restrictions. The choice for BitTorrent as distribution protocol is obvious: the distribution costs are practically zero.

Interested in the show? Check out CBC’s user page or subscribe to their RSS feed. Make sure to download an episode and leave your comments.

For more information, check the coverage of TorrentFreak on this story.

We’re very much looking forward to other broadcasters following CBC’s example. Stay tuned for updates!

It would cool if CBC torrented some Stanley Cup playoff games (in WS), but I doubt that they have the rights.
