    I know the nesn sports package doesnt work on regular season games. Not sure about ST.

    I used to live in Tenn and got the nesn sports package and could not get the games. MLB has a contract with the extra innings package.

    I will not pay for Red Sox baseball. They will have to broadcast with advertising, as I won't pay for the programming with the ads. I will watch all the regular season games via free direct streaming feed and review replays of the game, as well as listen for free on the radio.

    I attend minor league games on a steady basis, both in North Carolina and South Carolina. Salem and Greenville and Charlotte are regular games that I attend. The pricing for this entertainment is competitive. MLB is a terrible entertainment value and is not competitive with the sports entertainment market.

    well softy I agree with you and I disagree with you. as far as mlb having terrible entertainment value? I can watch the big club on nesn cause I live right here in the boston area. for the biggest bang for my buck I can get onto 95 south and head down to pawtuckett and catch the pawsox and have a ball. the dogs are cheap. the brews also. there isn't a bad seat in the entire stadium and I get to see our future stars play great baseball. nuff said.

    Steaming radio feed is free, for Red Sox radio.

    The premium broadcast costs is not competitive entertaiment value for remote viewing. There are far superior viewing entertainment values that require no premium. The fraud is the commercials for the premims programming. When ESPN and cable was first sold to the public, it was sold as no commercials in exchange for the premium monthly payments.  The new video on demand to fast forward, etc. isn't a lve broadcast, and is a terrible value as a time delayed viewing.

    The costs of attending a MLB games is not competitive. The last MLB game I attended was in Minnestoa for 3 dollars. Once they did away with "the bleacher seat low pricing", I directed entertainment time and money for a better value.

    As a consumer, I dictate the terms of my entertainment time and money. The MLBPA took aways the value to MLB game attendance, while delivering an inferior performance.

    The value is in steaming video and radio feeds for games. These feeds are free and, to anyone with basic computer knowledge, can be accessed with little location and set-up time that avoids any registration or virus infection.

    As for actual baseball, the minor leagues deliver a far superior value and performance product.

    I got cable TV including ESPN when it first came out in the 1970s and the only shows without commercials were HBO movies.

    Not in my rural market. ESPN and cable was marketed as commercial free programming in exchange for the monthly payment.

    You liked the price of $3 to watch a Twins game in the bleachers. Do you realize that the MLB Extra Innings Package is $199 for 2430 games. If you watched only Red Sox games, the cost per game would be $1.25.

    You obviously don't know the difference between life entertainment and remote visual and audio entertainment. MLB extra innings is not competitive in video and audio entertainment value.

    I pay $19.99 a month for unlimited Internet time and visual and audio media , and also have remote access through devices that I bought on Ebay for a few dollars. I change services on a regular basis, as the entertainment business is always about capturing lazy people living off other people's money, who do not demand the best value from the market.

    You can watch any Red Sox game, for free, via streamline connection. There isn't a "website", it's simply locating the access IP, which changes but isn't hard to find.

    What is your Internet download speed. To get a good picture on your computer or TV, it should cost you more than $20 per month. 

    My picture and speed is as good as timewarner or any other highspeed retail service I've accessed on other accounts. 

    Then again if you live in a rural area, your service might be subsidized though the federal government. That would mean that you are benefitting through an entitlement / handout that I am paying for.

    No, we're not receiving a welfare subsidy from the feds. However, even assuming I was, you and over half the nation isn't paying any federal income tax. I pay enough enough taxes to morally demand 10 people work all day and everyday, doing yard and household work. Of course, most people in America don't actually work but a few hours a week, and live in households sustained by the federal ponzi scheme, I mean entitlements.

    Who will the American current majority national electorate vote for, once the unfunded entitlment promises from the Democrat Party are never delivered.

    Yes, you do get NESN along with the Fox sports package on DirecTv but baseball games are blacked out, at least in Michigan.  I get all the pre and post game stuff but no games.

    Amazing, this is exactly the same problem with the Obama Administration's Ministry of Propraganda. A lot of MSNBC and CNN and ABC, CBS lemming amplification of the Obama Administration's propaganda talking points for the day, but massive unemployement, gas and food inflation, and the slaughter of American troops in Afghanastan goes on during Obama's private golf games.

    You would need to spend money on the MLB package, You could probably get it cheaper on the Apple TV or Roku. As a general rule of thumb just ignore pike he is doing his damnedest to ruin this board.
