It is steep but it's worth it if you watch a lot of football.

Just not having to deal with those shitting streaming sites makes it worth it.

 

[The Lemon]

I am buying it today. I just need it

 

[rumply]

Pretty sure thats $264 Aussie dollars - it's $199US

Still bloody steep though, I think it's gone up about $70AU since I first bought it two years.

Ah OK, that's a bit better but still, they'd be making a fortune if sub rates haven't dropped

& it's all HD & never any streaming issues? There wouldn't want to be for that price...

 

[JeffDunne]

Yeah it's a good service. Hardly ever have streaming problems with it.

The ability to switch between games quickly is the big thing for me.

 

[The Lemon]

not watching 2 games at once is a bummer...but with redzone and foxtel go...i should be right anyway

Never had any issues as far as I can remember - it's top notch, this isn't a Telstra branded AFL site or some dodgy Australian government ABS site.

 

[aussiedude]

sparkyblue Why doesnt gamepass have the Redzone preview days for the preseason

 

[The Lemon]

Must admit i am looking forward to connecting my PC to the TV and seeing what it looks like.

I stream the UFC on my TV and it looks perfect...i am hoping its the same

I've got a pretty decent quality laptop and to me the laptop on TV isn't as smooth as playing through the native app on the AppleTV. It's HD but there might be a framerate issue I need to fix up at my end because it seems a tad stuttery (not bad enough that you can't watch but it's one of those things once you see it you can't stop noticing it)

I will give it a go tomorrow morning. As long as it's watchable i will be fine.

More than watchable, you'll be right

To the extent that we can't hold Goodell responsible for the "last mile" debacle that is the NBN.

Was using it on both ADSL and Cable and it was fine, have noticed here in Singapore it is even better.

 

[JeffDunne]

Yeah you notice the difference when not using our shitty ADSL network.

In fact if my internet connection is going down, 90% of the time it's early on a Monday morning which pisses me off no end. I refuse to believe it's a coincidence. Then I've got to switch to me phone which makes me want to go postal.

 

[Persevering Saint]

Yeah, im waiting to hear back from someone about the Fox Sports games. Lastyear a site had a streaming package with Fox Sports games, BTN games and Pac-12 Networks [all 7 networks] Deals and stuff for the upcoming season are still being worked out but hopefully its the same. Then the only games missing are CBS, and regional coverage from small schools. WatchESPN should have all the ESPN Networks games. and ESPN Australia are still working on a deal for live streaming ESPNU and SECnetwork. but they have been saying that for the last 9 months.

Pac-12 also sell the National network feed on Youtube for about $15 US a month, but dont sell the 6 regional networks.

It was about $20 US a month for access.

Pac-12 have created a "Pac-12 Now" app for Android and Apple. It's also Chromecast compatible. The problem is, you can only watch the content on that app via a login provided by an American Cable Company. #bugger

(also, apologies fellas - I recognised this is an NFL discussion, and so talking about watching Collegeball is a bit of a digression. I just figured it's probably not threadworthy, and I didn't want to be the newbie punk on a forum starting new threads)

Anyone wondering about quality of picture or reliability can give the 7 day free trial a go.

Signing up this year..

 

[JeffDunne]

One aspect of the NFL I love (that I wished the AFL still had) is a game day with at least six games playing at the same time.

Gamepass is great for that.

If you only watch primetime games then there's enough free options that you probably don't need it.

If you're like me & you like to torment your family, get them to buy it for you as an early Christmas present and then annoy the shit out of them on Christmas day by watching the NFL all day. Trust me it will.

Boy did I get it last year when I sat and watched the Dallas game during Xmas lunch.

 

[Paul Kersey]

Can I get a discount anywhere or am I done for $265?

 

[Gralin]

I had to cancel this year due to being poor. May be able to scrounge the money together later for it
