What's funny is I would sign up for MLB.com in an instant if I could watch the local game but they block that so I'm out.


I don't have cable anymore, but watch most of the games with a buddies Comcast log in on my iPad.

Which is the most infuriating part... I have NBA League Pass, live in a separate TV market (same state) from my preferred team, but still a large percentage of games are blacked out.

If someone (Apple/ Amazon/ startupX) figures out how to get great live sports content on demand to consumers, they will have an amazing company.


This was my frustration also. It surprises me that they haven't worked out an arrangement to either make that feature an upgrade or worked out a way to make financial arrangements with (I'm guessing) the people who have broadcast rights for a market.
