NBC probably payed substantially more for their rights. But it could have nothing to do with that as it's only to be European and Middle East broadcasters affected

STG.Otaku · 16-08-2014 02:58PM

Star Sports is ok. Bit choppy but ok.

Bein Sports? Yeah if La Liga is blocked I will be cancelling my sub. What a stupid move by the greedy PL.

iba · 16-08-2014 03:01PM

Bein Sports:

Star Sports is almost useless for me, picture perfect for 60 seconds, then unwatchable for 60 seconds. I subscribed last year, so pretty much knew what to expect but I hoped they might improve. Bein Sports, when it works is typically excellent, unfortunately I can't see this situation improving soon. Regret buying the subscription now, terrible communication about this, the first I knew about it was when it didn't work for the 12:45 game

STG.Otaku · 16-08-2014 06:14PM

PSV match on 12HD seems fine. Hoping that La Liga will be unaffected. If it is, then in my personal case, I'll stay subbed as that's all I want aside from the Norwich games.

Sucks for those looking for EPL matches though. Such a shame legitimate paying customers have to miss out.

Star Sports was rubbish this afternoon for the Sunderland match. 10 seconds of quality, 30 seconds of blocky nonsense, repeat and rinse. Still, at 400 rupees it's a handy backup.

So you used a UK / Irish address?

For £10 or so, well I had 3 pints last night for that and I often bet £10 on a horse race or football match, so it's not an amount of money that would concern if it fell through

The internet was full of vine clips yesterday. Ashley Young was most prominent

STG.Otaku · 17-08-2014 03:18PM

Star Sports is ropey but better than yesterday.

Bein Sports? Just a copyright notice for the channels showing EPL games. The rest are working fine.

Sorry state of affairs if the other leagues follow suit...

Nowso · 17-08-2014 03:36PM

plp is reportedly Juddering badly

is nbc the only one working well

TCP/IP · 17-08-2014 06:54PM

BeIn Sports worked perfectly today and great quality. Only checked in a couple of times as was watching on Sky but BeIn looked great and no issues.

Yeah? It was displaying a message for me about how the game was not available online due to rights restrictions...

TCP/IP · 18-08-2014 04:33PM

I will test the Chelsea game tonight and report back.
