I'm not gonna play myself into their competition games. They can collude all they want. I can gladly watch FREE on the internet.

time to upgrade my broadband speed...
-
Only for one season... The price will be "review" (increased) in the second season !
It seems like we are being taken for a long ride...

maybe to prepare themselves in good position for "Justified increases in the monthly costs of football channel" ? So that they can leech us more in the future? -
i wont subscribe to singtel for this. I hope they lose money in this to teach them a lesson.

Eh singtel, fuck you understand. Do you sincerly think that by having the rights to top European football, we'll all flock to you like eager beavers? While you sit in your office and kiao kar, the CONSUMERS are the one SUFFERING.
I sincerely hope that this new venture would bring about your downfall. ALL SINGAPOREANS BOYCOTT!!

i'm with you
i would rather watch on the net, although not so good quality, but it's better than allowing singtel to benefit from it.
unless the rights return to starhub, if not im not moving.

I still suspect a wayang going on and on and on...The question is, who were the ones holding the auction in the first place?
I don't think its the English FA doing the auctions themselves... No news is made of this, is it the MDA or some local organization who buy the rights (cheaply as there isn't any one else buying) and hold an auction and let S & S wayang us all?
And secondly, after so many years, why isn't it made known officially the price of the winning bid? I had enough of the "rumour to be" , "believed to be" , "said to be" just give us the actual sum, is it so difficult to count?
Starhub and Singtel are public listed companies, they should be made to declare the sum they spent and justify it to their shareholders... There is no transparency here... I am still a Singtel shareholder leh...
And Malaysia has 5 to 6 times more population than us, so how come it's Sg who is paying the most in SEA?
Really weird...
-
of course its a wayang..i remember paying only 4 bucks a month in 2002?but they cannot keep increasing the price when they're only the sole bidders, so what they did was to get singtel in, so they can use competitor as a excuse..but who really knows how much they bidded? just like the champions league, starhub hardly even threatened..there's something fishy going on..

time to sign for skysports online streaming
-

Does Malaysia and indonesia watch BPL for free?
if that the casue, are we able to get those set up box so we can watch from Malaysia or indonesia channel?
