Did anyone purchase it to watch the basketball games? If so, how did it work?

I watched some of them (google Ulive CBS and you can get a free week so you don't have to pay if you haven't already). the quality was fine, but there was no scoreboard or anything so you had to wait for the announcers to let you know the score, time and shot clock. CUSA can and should do better IMO, expecially since they are charging for it.

Try this. Go to NCAA Forum and then Week #19 streaming. It has a scoreboard and the niceties one expects. And it's free.

Thought it was really good for Marshall men's game vs. FAU - quality picture and announcing - until there was about 3 minutes left. Then it froze and barely moved a few seconds every five to ten minutes. Don't know if many Herd fans, sensing a victory they didn't expect, came to the program late in the going. We also had trouble with the post-game, never came up before left at 11:30 p.m.

KUDOS for providing that link!

will definitely opt out for that in lieu of firstrow's inconsistency and headaches....

You almost missed the best part. It looked like Marshall would run away with the win and then FAU started raining threes. It was a good game and so was the Ootsa game. Easy U. came back after the Runners were ahead and then the Runners left Richmond alone and he started getting threes. That kid is good if you leave him alone but if you breathe down his neck he can't make his own shot. Bertone and him should get in a shooting exhibition. We missed the no.tex-rice game.

We'll be there today for all the games. Whew, that's a lot of game in one day but my wife insists on watching all of them. Ahh, what a wonderful wife, eat your hearts out.

thats actually what I normally do, but I guess I was expecting the quality to be better going directly to the source. I guess it really doesn't.

The quality looked nearly HD when I watched last night on FirstRow. I was pretty impressed with its quality for an internet stream.

Thanks a lot for the link Monarch!! By the way,many conferences provide early rounds FREE on their websites.

it honestly just depends on the streamer,. Sometimes you'll find HD quality and sometimes it's crap (like one stream I was watching at one point, the guy just kept changing the channel on the stream for no reason)

Yeah I know.

The links on WIZIWIG are tied directly to the CBS stream (not sure how they do it), so you don't have to worry about some ******* changing the stream.

If the stream from that site isn't working, it isn't working for paying users either.

I only got to watch one game yesterday, but the picture looked great and I didn't have any buffering problems. This was a screenshot:

...the feed is always the same source....

Best feed is on First Row Sports. The pic will show after a minute or so, and just click the x's to get rid of the occasional ad. GREAT, CLEAR picture though!

And btw, pulling for you guys, UTEP.

Surprisingly, I was pulling for you guys too. Your coach screwed it up by not putting someone on Richmonds face the whole game. You could have won this game and been playing us. It probably would have had the same outcome but at least it would have been a Texas duel.

The feed from the Don has been very good. Not quite as good from Memorial. They have had some power issues over there and the feed has been buffering a lot more than from the don.

I was watching the USM - UTEP game and lost the feed with less than 20 sec left. Has anyone got a feed going to the Tech game? I can't get either the of the game links to work.

the feed from this tournament has been better than all the other feeds.....guessing IMG had something to do with it....

don't have to worry about this tomorrow.....
