| cool Sure would be nice to have it wide open, and here's hoping that it stays that way. Money is already being made "hand over fist" by the event, advertising, etc.
No doubt it'll be some flash based video, with slight (annoying and headache inducing) motion jitter and not as high quality as a real TV broadcast, but it's not a bad start. | |

Who wants to watch it on a smartphone or tablet? Being out and about and traveling during the Superbowl you will see guys watching on the Ipads and phones. There are guys out there would watch from a screen on their thumbnail if they had to.
I don't get it but that's what I observed. I'm not into football.
I sat next to a guy in Singapore airport watching a NFL football game on his Ipad two weeks ago sometime around midnight. Looks like he was using a Slingplayer. He didn't have to worry about caps. -- The adventure continues...Sanctuary.... | |

| Re: Outage anyone, lol My bet is that VZW will, as soon as the teams are known for the 'bowl, roll out some serious (albeit temporary) infrastructure upgrades for the teams' home cities' networks. The real question is how much money Verizon will make off of $10/GB overage charges for this stuff. | |

 | | which one would you choose? Microsoft Silverlight or Adobe Flash? | |
|
 |  | | Re: which one would you choose? I would think Verizon at least would offer via html5 video, so they can support both iphones and android. | |
|
 |  |  | | Re: which one would you choose? hummm, interesting...definitely true about the iphone | |
|
 |  |  iansltx join:2007-02-19 Golden, CO kudos:2 | That's what I'm thinking as well. Flash/Silverlight are worse alternatives to that option. | |
|
 |  | | It's going to be Adobe Flash. | |

| Comcast doesn't nickel & dime ... do they? quote: At the moment it appears the streams will be fee-free and non-paywalled, though you wonder if an executive at the newly fused NBC-Comcast will be tempted to infect the offer with TV Everywhere-itis -- aka bury the offer behind a paywall or restrict it solely to users that have a Comcast TV or broadband connection.
I'm betting Comcast will turn this into whatever they can do to make the most money from their subscribers that THEY can. | |
|
 |  | | Re: Comcast doesn't nickel & dime ... do they? Only if the NFL lets them, all of this will have to be negotiated. The content owners still have rights to how its distributed. | |

 rit56 join:2000-12-01 New York, NY | Good I watch a lot of the games Sunday night on the NBC website. It's great.
