eddd Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 I realize you always take a chance when you cut to commercial, but the biggest pass of the race happens during an eharmony commercial? And the amazing pass at the finish line is not re-played????? Link to comment
Bologna Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 Don't you just love Euro TV coverage......I watch World Cup Ski racing during the winter and it is about the same! Link to comment
Linz Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 I got tired of TV coverage and subscribed to live video from www.motogp.com It beats everything else hands down. Linz Link to comment
chrisolson Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 .. live video from www.motogp.com It beats everything else hands down. +1 In HD 720 mode I can go full screen on a 23" monitor. No commercials, great onboard shots, lots of replays and you don't have to watch live if the time is inconvenient 'cause you can play the video whenever you want. Link to comment

Are they on drugs? Link to comment
chrisolson Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 Yeah, but for $150? Are they on drugs? Tain't cheap that's true, but this is a good case of ya get what ya pay for. Its not just the MotoGP races. What's availaible for free sucks and the expensive alternative is ... well .... expensive. Sometimes premium justs cost more. Link to comment
russell_bynum Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 I used to subscribe back when it was about $50. But for $150, I expect breakfast in bed every race day, delivered by Valentino himself. Link to comment
chrisolson Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 Each to his own, but I think I'd prefer one of the paddock girls Link to comment
CoarsegoldKid Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 Each to his own, but I think I'd prefer one of the paddock girls +1 I finally got things working right for watching MOTOGP.com. I highly recommend it. 150 dollars divided by 18 races = $8.33 (about the same as a cheeseburger and a beer) for watching without commercial interruption the practices, qualifying, interviews, and the races as many times as you want when you want for each event. This is a bargain. Plus you can watch races from the past. For instance the 2008 race at Laguna Seca where Rossi passes Stoner in turn 11. Or Hayden's championship year rides. All there. Invite your friends for a good time. Tell them to bring pizza and drinks. Watch it anytime 24/7 if you like. The producers can be on drugs all they want. SpeedTV can bite me. Link to comment
markgoodrich Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 I agree, Joe, glad you got it all working right. I didn't sign up this year (yet) and am disgusted with the Speed coverage, of course. At the halfway point in the season MotoGP knocks the subscription price down by half, for those of you not wanting to spend $150. Link to comment
Haynes Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 Here, there was only one 60 second commercial break about half way through the race. Nothing critical was missed. Link to comment
