mlbtv gets better every year.

1.2 MB streams for premium users.

every other sport should offer a service with this kind of quality.

1.2 MB stream is great but when you try and watch it on a TV you get a reduced game size (black bars surrounding game). When they fix that it will be good again like last year. As of right now there is no full screen mode and it sucks.

Bought MLB.TV Premium, it's great. I do have the same complaint as MJF though, and when I emailed them, they said they were looking into the problem, and it should be fixed.

I remember when the service first came out you couldn't even see the ball when it was hit. It's great to have for the price, especially if you like to gamble at work when there are afternoon games.

mlb.tv is just a scam

no full screen?
no Mosiac it won't load?
they tried to scam me to subcribe for SI.
45 minute wait on phone for support.
terrible cutomer service.
$20 for all this, over the course of a full season almost as much as extra innings. Huge scam.

I just bought a month of MLB TV for $19.95 to try it out.

I like it.
