ZeD received a peer review by Wikipedia editors, which is now archived. It may contain ideas you can use to improve this article. |
ZeD distributed an episode over bittorrent in April 2005. At the time I believed it to be the first television show to be distrubted this way, but now that I scour the Internet for references I can't find any. The "New new media" episode was aired on televison aired on April 1st, 2005 and published in xvid format (IIRC) to trackers shortly thereafter. I was one of the software developers who built the ZeD platform and I pushed hard to make this happen. We ensured all media aired that episode was appropriately licensed and after the episode aired on television we distributed the torrent file on various trackers. If anyone could help find viable third party references (all I can find is my own comments pointing out it happened, and now defunct links) it would nice to include this fact in the main article.

What is the source for the information about the 2005 - 2006 season schedule? --Zippanova 06:48, 16 November 2005 (UTC)
I think it's terrible that the show is cancelled. I thought it was some of the best programming I'd ever seen. The dismal ratings the CBC now gets is their just dessert. ZeD was really something special--they shouldn't have given it up. I hold the same opinion for that fantastic webzine "CBC Radio 3" that they scrapped last year. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.83.253.248 ( talk • contribs) 20:28, 2 November 2006 (UTC)
Hi. I came here from the peer review link. Here's some friendly feedback (not from a peer but from someone who never saw the show and is just starting out editing on Wikipedia).
Hope you don't mind the feedback, Canuckle 01:59, 29 May 2007 (UTC)

I tried the link "Official ZeD website", but got forwarded to a non-ZeD webpage. Is the ZeD website online elsewhere? -- EarthFurst ( talk) 12:41, 11 April 2009 (UTC)
No, unfortunately it appears that the website is no longer functioning as it redirects a person to the CBC British Columbia website. As for it being "in archived form" as the article states, that is not the case as I have yet to find it. Unless new evidence supports that statement, I will omit it from the article. -- Countdown42 ( talk) 07:19, 17 May 2009 (UTC)
Hello fellow Wikipedians,
I have just added archive links to one external link on
ZeD. Please take a moment to review
my edit. If necessary, add {{
cbignore}}
after the link to keep me from modifying it. Alternatively, you can add {{
