    Errk, that's a good question, as our PR post didn't really explain that very well. I will quote the great guys at <a href='http://www.slipgate.de/' target='_blank'>slipgate.de</a> below:

    <!--QuoteBegin--></span><table border='0' align='center' width='95%' cellpadding='3' cellspacing='1'><tr><td><b>QUOTE</b> </td></tr><tr><td id='QUOTE'><!--QuoteEBegin--> HLTV (or Half-Life TV) is a service that broadcast Half-Life multiplayer games to an unlimited number of spectators. It can be also used for recording and playback of complete matches. Multiple spectator modes, overview maps and Picture-in-Picture technology offers a broad range of various view styles. Automatic camera managment by an advanced director AI will ensure to catch any important game event.

    If I rememebr correctly, HLTV is a way for people not playing to watch a match being played in the third person, like a sporting event. It only uses one connection to the server hosting the game and plays the match on a second server so that multiple people can watch the game (on delay to prevent cheating) with out lagging the server hosting the actual game.
