Anyone got this? Worth it?

Usually watch on Eurosport but basterdised BT ruined it all. An interesting feature I saw is you can choose the sound mode so commentary on or off, track sound etc. Also various video modes and stuff

The big massive BUT is that the normal package costs €99!!

I am confused as to why people are still wanting to pay to watch MotoGP.

There have been several threads already explaining how to watch it all for free.

Fair play the coverage so far has been top quality and even Melanie Sykes has been ok.

I'm not sure I could justify paying for it but seen as I get it free with my broadband package I'm well happy.

That being said I'm not sure I could tolerate the knock down in quality you get when you stream from a fruity source. I've been watching premier league all season from an online source and even though I have good fibre optic broadband the quality is lacking.
I don't think your speed has much to do with it in terms of quality.
I think if perhaps if you are willing to risk downloading some of the advised (on the fruity sites) video players you may be able to get better quality....I won't risk that so end up with the 300bits a min speed.

I'm not a massive tech guy so might be doing something wrong.

Watched the practice for free in 1500kbps quality.

So did Mossy.

Excellent, does that involve having to use a special video player?

The forum is littered with "watch sports for free".

dammit mossy... we talked about this.

It costs about a penny per millennia to run.

Tried all the streaming sites mentioned, they just load a load of advertising crap onto your PC that takes ages to clean out. Be warned.
