    Good to know thanks! So might be worth it to get 6 months even though only a few months left in the season.

    Also I read on this review http://www.htpcguides.com/ballstreams-review-premium-nba-basketball-streaming/ that it works on playstation. But doesn't specify what console. Have you used it on your ps4?

    I might get this next season now because I'll probably be going back to Directv because Charter is garbage and all of the channels are pixelated messes and the Blazer channel has stopped working. Don't understand why in the year 2015 LP is blacked out in state, i'd like to pay for it, but it would be a waste of money since I can't get the one team i'd get it for.

    Basically bracing for an mls lockout. So Timbers might not be an option for a while :(

    Yeah, I only use it on ps4. You have to use the mobile version to stream to your console though.

    Look to get a Roku, I haven't used it but I think it works without the mobile version. Better research it before you do though.

    Isn't congress trying to un-fuck the NFL blackout rule? Adam Silver seems like he gets it, maybe he'll eventually fix the NBA blackout rule too since everything is going to streaming anyway.

    No, you use the browser. Instead of ballstreams.com it's m.ballstreams.com

    Look for an HDMI splitter on Amazon, I ran out of inputs long ago. They need to stop releasing decent games on the PS3 or port them over to the 4 so I can put my PS3 in storage for good.

    I've thought about those, but then I realized that most of my inputs are from video game stuff. Probably would have input latency issues with games.

    And I agree on PS3. But unfortunately my go'rram backlog is too big to out it away lol

    Yep that too. Plus it's nicer with the media remote. I still need to beat some random PS3 games like Ico, shadow of colossus, etc too. The mrs uses it for Netflix and crap too. Oh and it works on external drives with shows that I've gotten via certain means ;)

    The wifi in my Ps3 is fucked, so I have to connect it to my PC to download shit now, so no media stuff on it for me.

    You can pay for 1 month, or 3 months. You can also pay for 6 months and suspend your account until the start of next season.

    I'm watching a replay of last nights game right now.

    Occasionally it can be choppy, but is usually corrected by switching to another server. They have servers 8 different servers (West Coast, East Coast, Central, Eastern Canada, Asia, Europe and Australia) you can use to watch games.

    No reason to have cable or satellite with Plex it seems like.
