Their 12 month price is $10.00 less. Not sure if it is $89 or $79. The special ends on 9/25.

You would need to freeze your account until the season or preseason started.

Crush, what device do you watch ballstreams on?

I was looking into this to stream via my Xbox, but I'm finding people complaining about having to pay for another streaming service to make it compatible, or it just not working at all.

I use a roku 3 and a roku 1. The roku 3 is a wired connection and the quality is better. I haven't tried it with an Xbox.

I recall you mentioning service before.

So you feel this is the best way to go if you are like me and going through the internet to watch games?

I've always been able to find the game from one of the free sources, but the quality can be pretty poor at times, and there are no archive possibilities.

I assume that you've been satisfied with the reliability and quality?

Absolutely. I am very frugal and researched it a lot before spending $59.00 on it. I have cable but where I live the sabres black out the Knicks. I used to have to find about 20 games a year streaming. Also, ballstreams is in hd, you can choose your feed, home or away, all games are archived. Also, you don't have geographic restrictions, and you can start a game in progress or watch from the beginning. I have shown parts of archived games at work on my smart board. You can have different games on different devices. Let me know if you have any questions. I will post the link to the Clutchfans thread when I get home.

Anyone know a way to stream Jet games?
fishmike 9/27/2024 11:00 PM Ug I hate this. The idea of Towns is great until you see what a pussy he is. Jules is a dog. DD was a flamethrower locked up cheap for 3 more years. First Leon move I hate

Here is the link to the clutchfans forum where it is discussed quite a bit. You also can go to their website and ask questions. I think I signed up as a non paying member initially and asked some questions before purchasing their service.

it's basically the same quality as nba league pass internet version at half the price... whats not to like?
what i really wish though... in this day and age... why oh why are we not getting full hd. some ****ty 720p transmission from nba is extremely below par in my opinion.
Nixluva is posting triangle screen grabs, even when nobody asks - Fishmike. LOL So are we going to reference that thread like the bible now? "The thread of Wroten Page 14 post 9" - EnySpree

I use a roku 3 and watch it on my tv. It is awesome. I have watched a second game on a computer, lap top, or phone. Also, if you travel you can just log into your account and watch a game.

if I watch it on a wired roku 3 I can't tell the difference between a 720 p and a 1080 p broadcast.

Is there a cheaper plan just for the NBA and or Nics? Like maybe a 6 month plan (if the playoffs fit in there.)

Thx in advance

Yeah. It is $59.00 for six months. That is what I got last year.

What is the legality of this service? I really want to get this because I wanna see the yoots... But I want to make sure I don't see an FBI logo midway through a season...

Did a little research... Based in NL so I guess out of FBI jurisdiction... So maybe have to worry about Interpol, heh...

Still, that line you always hear them say about this telecast is the property of the NBA blah blah... This has to be grey market at least. Wonder if my cable internet provider could somehow compromise this service...

I have had no issues. I am very frugal and researched it quite a bit. I think the clutchfans thread answered most of my questions. I didn't purchase it until my twc blacked out a knick game I was really excited to watch to show the Sabres. I have 15-20 games blacked out for Sabres broadcasts and got tired of finding streams and trying to get twc to throw the Knicks on another channel (Sabres are shown on 3 different channels).
