I am interested in doing this again, but I'm curious about the cost. What providers have this other than Comcast, and what is the charge? I had it two years ago, and it was awesome.

i thought only comcast had it.

the only thing that sucks are saturdays since fox blocks out all broadcasts until 6pm. you only get the local game at 12pm and then it's just fox until 6pm.

other than that it's pretty awesome. it was $150.00 last year. probably more this year.

I came in at $109 through my ranglin' two years ago. They gave me the $150 last year, with the early subscriber deal. I said no. It could be a Comcast only deal, that's part of my question.

Get the online one, you can watch all games for like $80. I have had it for several years now and love it.

It's worth the $209 investment, especially if you'd like to see & hear the legendary Vin Scully calling Dodgers' games by himself, Bob Carpenter & Rob Dibble calling a Nationals' loss, plus Dick Bremer & Bert "He should be in the Baseball Hall-of-Fame" Blyleven calling the Twins...

This is kind of shitty:

Comcast HD Restrictions and Blackouts

Comcast restricts its customers from viewing MLB Extra Innings games in HD. Comcast's restriction on HD broadcasts add to existing blackout restrictions in some broadcast markets. For example, Comcast customers living in the Houston-area broadcast market are restricted from watching the Texas Rangers. This blackout restriction is applied to both MLB Extra Innings and all local and regional broadcast stations.
