Question for those that have MLB.Live

What is the quality like....does it freeze alot ,etc

I would like to sign up as I think it is a better option then the cable package. I have a laptop so the be able to watch it any where appeals to me more than the fixed option on my TV but I want to make sure that it is "watchable".

I've used it for about 2 years and it's great. Obviously the picture isn't *as* sharp but it's still good. good picture majority of the time..and for the price..it's a heck of a deal. (not to mention you get the press pass also I believe with the subscription)

It all depends on the quality of your internet connection. For me - at home, the connection has always been great...at work, it is still good, but freezes a bit more...if you go "full screen" it is a bit grainy but not enough to bother me....I think it is supposed to be better this year too.

They are going to offer their own player (free at first) that is supposed to have better quality and allow you to watch multiple games at the same time!!!!!

While I enjoy it on the convenience of my laptop the CRT display on my desktop gives a better picture, almost broadcast TV quality.

I ordered it for 2006 (had it in 2004, didn't in 2005). VERY good quality, a tad blurry when you turn on "full screen" but still a great value for fans, gamblers, and guys in fantasy leagues :thumbsup2:

Go for it. Can't go wrong. Don't get if you have a 56k Internet Connection.

A piece of advice. Don't logon on every PC in your hometown. You'll be locked out and have to wait a certain amount of time.
