A bit of a bummer. It seems I’ll be sticking with DTV Stream for as long as this deal runs. not thrilled with the streaming quality of MSG+. The framerates are not up to snuff, in my opinion.
Objectively, however, I assume this is financially good for the team. It’s typically a fairly lucrative contract.
Booooooooo
Msg is pretty trash if you aren’t watching on your TV. I have not once successfully watched a game on the streaming service despite having a cable subscription
Bittersweet, as we should retain our broadcasting team, but still stuck with MSG and their shit streaming capabilities.
I wonder what the annual payout is…wasn’t our previous deal one of the more lucrative ones in hockey?
Fuck.
Looks like an unpopular opinion but I’m totally fine with this — I’m not local anymore so I watch all my games on ESPN+/Hulu/streams online when not available other places. Never had an issue with video quality personally and I quite like our broadcasters. My biggest annoyance is with ESPN+ rather than MSG itself
Why go to free/accessible TV and be the go-to team for anyone under 35 when you can be the third most important team behind Dolan’s paywall and cash out now?
I bet the Devils took less money for it too. They’re too scared to try something new so they’re sticking to what they know. I swear our beloved team has historically been one of the most anti-fan organizations the league has ever seen. This will bite them in the ass one day, especially when the cable bundle finally collapses.
If not MSG, do we even have any other options??
I’m torn on this. I have very easy to access to MSG+ with my parents cable account, so I’m selfishly pleased that I don’t need to find another option. I’m also glad we don’t have to deal with worrying about whether or not we can keep the same broadcast team since they’re MSG employees. I could also very easily see the organization starting a competing service that would cost as much as, if not more than, MSG+ since it would cater to a smaller market than the 5 fanbases on MSG. And who even knows if they would bother with airing the games on cable at that point?
However, MSG+ is absolute garbage and I hate that we’re lining the pockets of our biggest rival. How long does the extension last? I ain’t subscribing to NJ.com and can’t find another article
The devil you know, I suppose. Pun maybe slightly intended
Kind of disappointing when almost half the state is stuck with Comcas/xfinity and are being told to go fuck ourselves. Oh well yo ho yo ho….
Thanks, I hate it.
