Anybody have the MLB.com TV package for this year? Or last year?

It's $79.95 for the year or $14.95 per month. Any comments. I'm seriously considering this.

I did it a couple years ago when "my" Red Sox won it all. I mostly used it to see all their series with the Yankees. To me it was worth it (at least that year) but if you pay like eighty bucks for the whole season and only view about twenty games then it seems kind of expensive per game(...but then again four bucks doesn't buy you that much these days...) If you're a real baseball fan, though and want to watch at least three-or-four games a week with the regular American (or Canadian) commentators then it's definitely worth it. (I might get it again myself...)

There was initially a little complication with me, though, because my home address is in New York state, and there was a blackout on some games at Yankee Stadium. It was cleared up with a phone call (proving that I was living in Korea) and they emailed me a code to copy and paste...

Well, I bought it. I'm watching the final game at Old Busch Stadium right now. I couldn't be there or watch it on TV, so this is wonderful for me!

I'd say this game alone, plus the classics available (Ryan's 7th No-Hitter, 67 WS, etc.) would make this very worth it.

Are the games only available live, or can you watch them a day or two after the fact?

My mornings here are free, so it's good timing for weeknight games. But weekend, day games would be on at terrible hours here.

You can watch them live or On Demand after the fact. You can even watch any game from last year, plus several classic games from the 1940s til the 90s.
