    for broadband, I only see two installments for 32.95 for the 5 team choice package.

    or one time $89 "buy it now" for the whole package vs $59 but it now for the 5 team package.

    they better not be screwing the early birds by a team here...

    mobile deal priced separately at $25 and $20 for Sprint customers with the Mobile App.

    my Sprint Mobile App is giving the free preview. I'll probably throw down the $20 bones after this preview expires.

    withmustard- you should have bought lpbb three seasons ago

    Good advertising during the free week. "This Game Unavailable Due To Technical Difficulties".

    the LPbb quality is really good. Was able to watch the Rockets tonight and it's like 100x better than those illegal streams I always watch on.

    what do you mean? illegal streams

    LP BB could be free and you can watch LPBB Games live from anywhere of the world..... not just from USA

    i don't like it because it blackouts some national games which is usually great matcups. LP BB has 3000 Kbps videobitrate,while ILP has 3000 Kbps video bitrate too. same quality in 720p resolution

    but hey, LPBB audio is awful, only 63 Kbps and most of the time up and down, pretty annoying,and you got commercials...


    what's left is some lame matchups

    Got a really good job for a great company, the kind I want to keep for the next 15-20 years. I've wanted the position for quite some time.

    This comes after working for a complete clown that fired me because I wouldn't agree with stupidity. First time in my life I've been let go instead of leaving.

    Long story, very stressful. The kind of experience that makes sure I will always be thankful and not take anything for granted.

    ?

    it looks like a 2 installment package of 50 bones for the broadband package for all 30 teams for the rest of the season, unless you are talking about buying League pass for tv and getting the free broadband with the package.

    that or you are International, but your location says Houston.

    but yeah, it's good.

    sorry to burst your bubble but last night for no good reason the grizz game went off air for 30 minutes between the 3rd and middle part of the 4th period. Also if you are using hotspot, you need to turn it off once you get into the game otherwise you are going to lag and cut off like hell.

    Same thing happened to me, that was 2 seasons ago, nice to see they haven't changed their ways.

    It's a shame. The quality isn't bad, but paying money for a subscription only to have NBATV games blacked out and the shady auto-renewal/subscription cancel keeps me from purchasing on principle.

    Auto-renewals, in general, should be outlawed. You should receive a notice to opt in, not have to wait for a period after the season and then remember/figure out how to opt out.

    You didn't receive emails about 4 weeks before the auto-renewal saying exactly when it would take place? I did.

    What does that have to do with the price of tea in China?

    A customer, for such a pricey subscription, should be able to purchase a season without automatic renewal for the following season. You cannot turn off auto-renewal during the season. They force you to wait until after the season is over, and even then they force you to wait a while longer.

    When you are able to cancel your subscription they purposely make it as unintuitive as possible. This isn't to say that you cannot figure it out, but in my opinion the way they hide the option is borderline unethical.

    I will no longer be a customer until they change these practices.

    caved in and bought the rest of the regular season and the playoffs for $70 today, seems like reasonable value, even just for playoffs, has anyone tried watching it via a smart tv via ethernet connection?
