Going Gonzo with Webcast purchases today:

[SirFozzie]

ESPN Insider + ESPN Magazine: $4.95 a month

Mainly for the rumors, the live webcast of football games is a DEFINITE plus (BC this weekend), and just general sports goodness.

Yahoo! Platinum Sports Pack $11.95 a month

Live streaming video of MLS games (like having a Internet version of MLS SHootout), plus lots more sports and entertainment stuff. Looks like you can get live Nascar in car footage.

Soccer Live Webcasts for 76 different UK teams (19.99 Pounds for 12 months)

Got this through my favorite English side, Cambridge United, but it offeres 76 different webcasts from teams from the English Premiership down to the Conference, and the Scottish Premier League. But it's the U's I'll be following from work ;)

And...

RealOne SuperPass $6.95 a month (I believe)

The creme de la creme of sports packages. Major League Baseball, NBA Basketball, and NFL Football Webcasts through this thing. DEFINITELY the thing to listen to from work, or at home (I can't get a signal for the Celtics radio station around here, so listening to the game over the net= A GOOD THING.

Anything else I should be looking for?

(besides a 2nd job to help me pay for all this shit ;))

I myself have the RealOne SuperPass so I can have my fill of the NBA when the Bulls aren't playing.

[SirFozzie]

Actually, I had to buy NFL Field Pass seperately, apparently even though it was Real offering it NFL wants more money for it (growl)

So add another $24.95 to the list.. but I will be getting a free Super Bowl program out of it (rolls eyes)

BTW Neuq, tonight you and your Naperville team are my mortal enemies.


VIVA LE REVOLUTION!

DOUSE THE FIRE!

SirFozzie, Can you go into a little more detail over the Soccer package. Where would one go to check that out?

[SirFozzie]

atatange1: I assume you mean the European one?

I went through the home site of Cambridge United:

www.cambridge-united.co.uk

and went to U's World.. which is the part of the site ran by the folks who stream the audio.

You can choose a variety of options.. the most expensive one, allows you access to EVERY single "World" site (76 in all), and get all the bonus stuff (video highlights, past matches, the whole shebang). That'll set you back about $60-$70 US for a full year.

The one I selected gets me the streaming audio from the different games. some are professional radio, some are local radio.. it cost me 19.99 pounds (about $30 US) for a full year.

This is just about the only way you'll get streaming audio from UK leagues.

Dola:

I hope you go through cambridge united. The club (a tiny club in Division 3, the lowest level of professional football) gets a portion of the fee :)

Thanks for the info.
