You would think, too

that as a taster for the future and to draw in more subs they might stream the game for free just this once. PTV are complete c**ts

    - "Less than 10 pence a day", according to their blurb (NCFC) - Steve in Holland, Jul 28, 11:07:11
      - for someone like me who often works sat afternoons, pay by game would be great, (NCFC) - NCFC4life, Jul 28, 11:20:52
        
        The club and pay tv most probably, (NCFC) - pants, Jul 28, 11:33:22
        
        It's Premium TV (NCFC) - BerlinCanary, Jul 28, 11:50:10
      - Yeah, commentry only, and I was considering it again this year (NCFC) - pants, Jul 28, 11:19:46
      - Re: 2) it IS free if you are in Norfolk since you just listen to Radio Norfolk (NCFC) - Johnny Comecardiff, Jul 28, 11:08:05
        
        Still can't believe the lazy bbc hasn't put the regional stations on dab nationwide (NCFC) - pants, Jul 28, 11:20:40
        
        i was thinking that the other day, it would be ideal for the games then, (NCFC) - NCFC4life, Jul 28, 11:27:14
        
        True, see, I'd pay a fiver a month to have all the bbc stations (NCFC) - pants, Jul 28, 11:31:15
        
        fazackerly (n/m) (NCFC) - NCFC4life, Jul 28, 11:37:27
        
        this ^^^ would be great (NCFC) - blindasabat, Jul 28, 11:25:33
        
        Something like 50 odd channels though. (NCFC) - Johnny Comecardiff, Jul 28, 11:27:14
        
        would add more value than the regional TV stations do though (NCFC) - blindasabat, Jul 28, 11:31:40
        
        It would easily be worth imo, people all over the world listen (NCFC) - pants, Jul 28, 11:36:12
        
        I don't think Radio Norfolk is broadcast online during games even for UK users (n/m) (NCFC) - Steve in Holland, Jul 28, 11:11:06
        
        Intut? (NCFC) - Johnny Comecardiff, Jul 28, 11:14:12
        
        nah, the block comes off at 16.45, hence (NCFC) - pants, Jul 28, 11:34:33
        
        nope, you get spiel about it being outside of their rights or some shite (n/m) (NCFC) - NCFC4life, Jul 28, 11:18:04
        
        Yes, the internet rights were sold to PTV by the football league (n/m) (NCFC) - BerlinCanary, Jul 28, 11:53:17
  - Fly over and I'll buy you a pint of Oranjeboom (n/m) (NCFC) - malkybarkid, Jul 28, 10:03:25
    - Malky, we had a pie orgy last night. Shame you weren't about. (n/m) (NCFC) - Steve in Holland, Jul 28, 10:06:04
      - It would have blipped my head off - plus I was sitting in the King's Beer Concrete. (n/m) (NCFC) - malkybarkid, Jul 28, 10:10:24
  - WHAT DO I NEED ? (NCFC) - Steve in Holland, Jul 28, 09:55:37
    - so still the same then... (NCFC) - BerlinCanary, Jul 28, 09:58:10
      - But that's a lewd of old squit. I use FF3 on Vista with it all the time. (n/m) (NCFC) - Steve in Holland, Jul 28, 10:01:12
        
        Yeah, but if you have a problem they'll just ignore you (n/m) (NCFC) - BerlinCanary, Jul 28, 10:02:08
        
        well they have clearly stated that they're not supported... (n/m) (NCFC) - blindasabat, Jul 28, 10:05:53
  - that was my theory, as a fellow Mac user i agree, fuck 'em! (n/m) (NCFC) - NCFC4life, Jul 28, 09:49:53
    - You would think, too (NCFC) - BerlinCanary, Jul 28, 09:55:20
      - Not to mention the price of the sub going up from 24.99 to 39.99 in one year, and (NCFC) - Steve in Holland, Jul 28, 09:56:31
        
        actually i reckon that's a lod of old bollocks (like the suggestion that it won't work on (NCFC) - blindasabat, Jul 28, 10:04:27
        
        But why would I have a UK bank account ?! (n/m) (NCFC) - Steve in Holland, Jul 28, 12:12:25
        
        because you're still a UK citizen... (NCFC) - blindasabat, Jul 28, 12:20:03
        
        I am not a UK Citizen am I ? I'm a British National, but a Citizen of the Netherlands (NCFC) - Steve in Holland, Jul 28, 12:25:41
        
        citizen, national, whatever... (NCFC) - blindasabat, Jul 28, 12:34:52
        
        Ah OK, well I don't. (n/m) (NCFC) - Steve in Holland, Jul 28, 12:38:56
        
        Really? That's outrageous - really gouging the customer (NCFC) - BerlinCanary, Jul 28, 10:01:01
        
        I'm all set up for next season now (NCFC) - pants, Jul 28, 11:51:45
        
        serves you right for living abroad.... (n/m) (NCFC) - blindasabat, Jul 28, 09:58:47
        
        Well, if you live in the UK and use direct debit, it's still a 10 quid rise in one year (n/m) (NCFC) - Steve in Holland, Jul 28, 10:04:33
        
        surely they should support Mac format by now, especially with the growing popularity. (NCFC) - NCFC4life, Jul 28, 10:04:13
        
        Their problem is that they've locked themselves into an MS DRM solution (NCFC) - BerlinCanary, Jul 28, 10:13:50
        
        the other argument would be "surely Apple could support DRMed material by now" (NCFC) - blindasabat, Jul 28, 10:11:53
        
        Not really - MS refuse to licence or support WMP 10/11 and therefore DRM on Macs (NCFC) - BerlinCanary, Jul 28, 10:16:49
        
        tbh i don't give a shit who is to blame in all this (NCFC) - blindasabat, Jul 28, 10:26:22
        
        Personally I doubt they weighed up anything (NCFC) - BerlinCanary, Jul 28, 10:42:20
        
        if they thought they could make money out of it i'm sure they would (n/m) (NCFC) - blindasabat, Jul 28, 10:48:13
        
        You can't win. (NCFC) - Johnny Comecardiff, Jul 28, 10:52:50
        
        Obviously not. And there is one thing they can't do which PC users can: (NCFC) - Steve in Holland, Jul 28, 11:11:55
        
        lol (n/m) (NCFC) - NCFC4life, Jul 28, 11:26:13
        
        It's not a competition... (NCFC) - BerlinCanary, Jul 28, 11:02:20
        
        perhaps they are (NCFC) - blindasabat, Jul 28, 10:56:54
- it ended yisty, they knew you were all going to do it today (n/m) (NCFC) - NCFC4life, Jul 28, 09:46:46
  - bastards (NCFC) - strap_on sally, Jul 28, 09:51:25
    - or you could go to a pub and watch it on sultana sports (n/m) (NCFC) - NCFC4life, Jul 28, 09:52:29
      - i've got too much to do and a heavily pregnant wife (NCFC) - strap_on sally, Jul 28, 09:55:37
