    I remember you get an early bird discount. When do you have to place the order to get that discount? And what is the phone # to call to get that discount? Thanks

    Nothing. Just call Directv (1-800-347-3288), tell them you want it right now, and it's $169 or 4 payments of $42.25.

    But you have to have Directv....forgot about that.

    I don't use DirectTV, so it means no discount to me? How can it be possible?

    I think they offer it for Comcast as well. I’m not sure though, I just remember hearing about the discount when I was looking into it awhile back.

    I believe digital cable viewers on "In Demand PPV" also get the early bird discount. I was thinking about getting it to watch the Orlando games. Is it worth it? Here is the link: NBA League Pass

    Last year's early bird deal was $149, right? This is a $20 hike over one season.

    You can get it from Direct TV, Dish Network or DTV in demand PPV.

    Last year's early bird deal was $149 and those MFers raised the price to $169 this year.:mad:

    I am calling DishNetwork to cancel my subscription.

    League Pass may be the best $150+ I've spent each year for the past 3 years. Of course, I'm a basketball fanatic, but it is awesome. You get 97.5% of the games (if you include TNT, ESPN, ABC and NBATV) so it's awesome.

    I'd even ay extra if they offered the pre-season games. Maybe next year.

    couldn't you just buy it once and then somehow distribute it to all the tvs?

    It's not that...see when you are in a commercial building the direct Tv and dish network people know that based on your location. Doesn't matter how many dishes you have for the prices. The prices are based on your occupancy and they have a form you fill out and they keep it on file based on your occupancy rating from the city.

    Based on the occupancy of your place they have a pricing package because they know you are making money on what your showing. That's why all places will charge you a cover for the boxing events becuase they are the most expensive to order. If we didn't do that we would loose tons of money.

    For all the other packages since they are a long season we make our money back in sales etc.

    So doesn't matter if you have one dish or twenty, they know your a commercial site and you go through a different set of rules and representatives to handle the packages...

    Pirating is such a harsh word. Couldn't we just call it "sharing?"

    Sure we can. But if we call it sharing, we technically didn't have this conversation. If you know what I mean.
