On a (rare) serious note ... there's no way that this can't happen.  Totally a la carte cable options without having to figure out 20 different streaming services.

 

Why can't I call Time Warner Cable and tell them I want my local major network affiliates, SNY, ESPN, every !@#$ing food channel out there, and the NFL Network for xxxx amount of dollars?

BASTARDS!🤬

I got this box right before the NFL season.  I live in Phoenix and I got every Bill's game and Sabres games, great game tonight by the way. Requires only internet 1000's of channels and no extra fees

Whaaaat?!? How have I never heard of this?! Is this a loop hole that will be plugged up at any minute? Obv amazing picture! Do you have to change regions or anything to switch markets or can you switch between games seamlessly?

 

Thank you for likely spending $300 of my dollars 😆

It's not a loophole per se, it's just an unlicensed IPTV service pre-loaded on the box - not too different than the "cable boxes" you'd get from that friend of a friend years ago that gave you all the movie channels. You can buy the services standalone and access them from any device you want, but when they move to another location or the owners go to jail, you're SOL. That's why you only ever want to buy it cheap and by the month. They're going to get caught eventually and you'll be left with a cheap android box.

Buying an nvidia shield and buying a standalone IPTV service is a far superior option.

Nope.  NFL+

 

NFL Milk Money would be most appropriate.

Will this be similar to or replace NFL GamePass?

 

Hope not with all the reported issues.  They are almost as bad as Zebras with errors.

I'll bet you'll have a buy a season package for your team, and individual games won't be offered. Or maybe you can get a single game, but it'll be really expensive, to drive full subscription sales. Either way, it won't be cheap.

 

Will you be able to bet on that since NFL loves gambling so much now?

Easier to remember and search for. 

 

"NFL maximum overdrive" tends to make people not want to search and pay for it. 

 

People are lazy. 

 

Actually the "+" is used for something else or ignored in many search engines.

Well, la tee f*cking da!!!  What's next?  You gonna tell us you have socialized healthcare or something?!?!?

 

More importantly they have beer with higher alcohol content.  I used to drive regularly over border for 2 cases each of Molson XXX (mother loved that) and Molson Brador.

International Gamepass is already this for those of us overseas.

[Metal Man]

Something like this would be awesome if it was simple and just gave you access to all the games.

 

However after reading that article it seems unlikely as the rights to broadcasts are spread out all over the place.

 

One price for one service that carried 100% of the game regardless of your market is the dream for me but for some reason the NFL has made that impossible.

It takes a few seconds to switch back and forth between games. But if you're worried about missing and action just watch redzone. Last night the NHL Channel that the Sabres were on was down for maintenance, so I just searched Chicago TV and found the game

I’m done with DirecTV; pulled the plug after last season.  I need to find a way to get an “international” address and subscribe to this plan.  What do they verify?  If it’s just an IP address I can figure that one out.

Beyond my technical knowledge I think.... but that would be my guess.

I've gotten by in life before this service existed and I will continue to get by in life after it launches. I'm committed to only having one streaming subscription and right now that's Netflix.

I am so lucky. In Canada, we have a service called DAZN (Da Zone). I pay about $20 a month for it during the season and get all the games including the ability to watch games that I missed just like they were on a PVR system.

That is all I needed to hear- I am moving to Canada!

Hope it’s available for a single team’s games… and that it’s not exorbitant 💸.

 

MLB.tv for a single team is $90 for a season according to the Google. That’s for 162 games.

 

NFL is 20 games, including preseason. $50 would be my limit.

espn+ is a good economic streaming choice for MLB games, 70 per year plus you get a lot of NHL games with the new NHL contract, a good option if you live outside of WNY for Sabres and or your MLB team....tmobile gives you the MLB package as a subsriber as well...

I think you are going to be very disappointed.
