It should not be the old ad model, where you have to watch an ad before or during the show. (If I have to watch a sponsor spot, there had better be hotties making out or jet fighters or something equally compelling.) The sat- and cable-nets are still using the old model, but that model and its users are slowly but steadily on the way out.
Ideally, EVE TV would use the Google ad model, where the ads are present on their web pages in a low-key, non-obnoxious and off-to-the-side way.
Personally if they went with advertising in EVE TV to offset the cost, I wouldn't mind how intrusive they are (short of product placement on the set itself). You can't have your cake and eat it too with this, I'm afraid.
Then again it would be totally priceless to see spiralJunkie have to awkwardly pitch something like feminine hygiene products. :D

i would pay.. but this **** service doesnt accept my creditcard (it is valid and works here fine...).
But in total i think eve.tv wont last long. To expensive and only interesting for the hardcore players
Personally I think there will be something for everyone, hardcore and new player alike. Given the fact most of the presenters are new players, that perspective alone should give a good reason for other new players to consider it.
Just a thought :)

They say Eve-TV is not a child from CCP and they have nothing to do with it.
But, why do they promote it in this intensive way on Eve-Online-Forum? 
Microsoft doesn't own all the game developers for their platform, yet provide forums for almost every single game released on their consoles on xbox.com.

I'm pretty sure that the next tournament will be free to view.
Yep, it was explicitly stated in the last live dev blog with Xyliana and Zapatero that the tournaments would be broadcast free of charge.
Not sure how many times they need to say it before folks will grasp that particular point. A few more times are in order, apparently. :)

Originally by: Shao'linI made a post specifically asking that and was told in a rather impolite manner to look in the eve-tv faq. It said that eve tv costs blah blah..... and I assumed since it was a moderator who replied that the tournament was the same as eve-tv.
I hope thats true that it is free.[/quote
Yeah, like I said that question was specifically asked of the EVE TV folks during the last EVE live dev blog thingy, to which they responded that it would be free. Which is a good thing really. If it wasn't, it would probably go down in history as being the least-watched tournament ever. :)
