Niche sports videos on the Web

If you have mountain bikers, skateboarders, or surfers at your house, chances are they love watching obscure, hard-to-get videos of their favorite pros. Karl Quist - the founder of TotalVid, a specialty video start-up and Web site - is just like our extreme-sports fans. He told CNET he used to drive his wife crazy watching favorite videos 1,000 times. "TotalVid offers more than 1,000 titles, which cost up to $4 and expire after seven days. In a classic up-selling move, consumers can also purchase a DVD and permanent digital version of a movie and have the rental cost subtracted from the DVD buy," CNET reports. I have a feeling this site will soon be bookmarked on computers at our house.
