And being as how Direct TV paid a lot of money to be have exclusive rights to it, you ain't gonna see NFL on a console or anything not controlled by DTV anytime soon.

This sounds incredible. Can anyone that is going to get the app tell me how the video quality is? I already have MLB Extra Innings but my cable provider doesn't carry the games in HD, so if the video is sharp I might get this instead.

This may convince me to renew my MLB.tv subscription.

The other day I was actually thinking about when they were gonna come out with this.

Man, between this and The Show, the PS3 is certainly the right system for baseball lovers, lol.

They said the games will broadcast in 720

I got it last night — video quality's great, and I haven't had any buffering issues whatsoever. Maybe once in a game it's gotten hung up for about a second. The menu interface is pretty solid, too. It loads fast, and it shows you Balls, Strikes, and who's on base in every game. I probably wouldn't recommend it if I already had Extra Innings, but if money isn't an issue, you definitely would get better picture quality than basic cable/satellite.

EDIT: Another cool feature is you can turn off scores in the menu. So if there's an afternoon game or something you can't see, and you want to watch it later, you don't have to worry about a spoiler as soon as you open up the app.
