It pisses me off when they ask for a provider. If I had a provider, I wouldn't be trying to stream it online.

They just want to be paid for the product they are selling.

I'm watching the commercials either way.

ESPN is planning on debuting a streaming service featuring "niche" leagues: https://consumerist.com/2016/07/12/espn-...-to-watch/

I wonder if this was the start of the ESPN3 rumors? I'd subscribe to a CUSA pass through ESPN if it meant HD quality video and audio.

Cable isn't free even with commercials

Closest thing I have come to free (after an initial purchase) is a digital antenna.

I can get local channels including WABM 68.

Can watch any games that would be on ASN on channel 68.

Also have ROKU which had an initial purchase & no further follow up costs.

Hoping games at some point in time would be available on it.

Plan on phasing out my Directv subscription. Just not worth the cost.
