+Welcome to the first TV channel on Gopherspace!
+
+Please see our different channels with its varieties of content, to make
+you happy and give you pleasure at the same time.
+
+The playlists are regenerated every hour and are best viewed using mpv(1)
+by passing the playlist url as an argument. For mplayer(1), vlc(1) there
+is gopher:// link support. We are working on playlist support.

+
+First Problem / Solution:
+
+The memecache is growing every day. People need to remember them, but
+with over 4096 memes, it is nearly impossible to know all of them. With
+tthe new visual representation in a stream, the case of people remembering
+and thus using the meme hashtag are higher.
+
+Second Problem / Solution:
+
+Gopher is about simplicity, showing how problems can be solved in a different
+way. The web is scaling up to complexity, of streaming servers, wasting band-
+width, not using simple tools which can be recombined, all tunneled over one
+protocol, making it too complex over time.
+
+The technology behind bitreich tv is simply the common text standard of
+playlists, referencing different protocols, interpreted by players like
+mpv(1), vlc(1) or any ffmpeg-based player, which now support the gopher
+protocol and beyond.
+
+Hopefully this will inspire others to create their TV channels on gopher.
