SilverNRed Posted April 1, 2005 Share Posted April 1, 2005 was wondering if anyone subscribed to mlb tv online, and what there opinions of the service was quality, blackouts, etc....thanks 292635[/snapback] I subscribe to it and I love it. The picture is small if you're sitting close but if you maximize the image to full screen and sit a couple feet back, it looks fine. The only blacked out games are the ones that are on in your area or could be on in your area (this sucks when FOX has three games to show on Saturday and you miss all three regardless of which one your affiliate is showing). You do need a high speed connection (I have cable) to ensure it works. I paid $100 to have the ALL ACCESS package for the season. Hope that helps.

Alaska Darin Posted April 1, 2005 Share Posted April 1, 2005 I had it last year. Make sure you cancel it after the playoffs or those bastards try to keep charging you. It works fine as long as you have a decent computer and a reliable broadband connection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jarthur31 Posted April 1, 2005 Share Posted April 1, 2005 I had the audio for the past 3 years and it's very clear. I know this does not pertain to the video. I wish I could afford that but TBS carries most of the Braves games and I don't really need it. I wish I could afford the price tag for video.

USMCBillsFan Posted April 1, 2005 Share Posted April 1, 2005 I used it when I was deployed to Africa because I had good connectivity. It worked great even there! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gantrules Posted April 1, 2005 Share Posted April 1, 2005 I was considering it this year but between YES, MSG, TBS and ESPN there usually is at least one game on per night. Now if I could only get Turner South I'd be happy.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Worth the bucks or is the season just to stinkin long to keep you interested? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I watched quite a few Yanks games last year and whenever the Braves were playing the Mets I would watch on MSG if it wasn't on TBS. I hope this hasn't changed. I know the Yanks will still be on YES b/c I've caught a few of their spring training games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elcrusho Posted April 1, 2005 Share Posted April 1, 2005 I watched the free preview in spring training and it was great, basically a live fee to ESPN... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(for me) I have the sports package on DTV and get all the channels. Whenever a major league game is on (baseball, basketball, hockey?) it's blacked out. How you doin that?

I only got TBS and the ESPN games when I had DTV a few years ago. The only reason I switched over was for Road Runner but I like having the additional channels come baseball season.
