NFL Sunday Ticket On Your Laptop

[Lotus]

Because they dropped the price from $40 to $10, I watched the Jets game on a live stream from NFL.com. It appears to be set up the same way as their $350 regular season package: promised 720p, etc.

Here is what I found:
a) while my tv said the signal was 720p, it was not a clear 720p. I think it is a lower resolution signal that gets upconverted, so it is not true 720p. While the picture was better than that of most free internet streams, it was not that great. Not $350 great, that's for sure.
b) the signal still had some of the start-stop interruptions found in free streams.

Was it better than free? Yes. Was it a lot better than free? No.

BTW I have a fast cable internet connection, high speed home network, laptop with HD video card, and a high-speed HDMI cable connection between laptop and TV.
