Message: [QUOTE="hidethesuspect, post: 2531822, member: 8408"] It's all about the money though. If they didn't allow Foxtel to dictate the terms (:D) they wouldn't get so much money. I would say a big chunk of Foxtel's market would disappear if we could get HD streaming online and pick any game we want without having to get Foxtel. I wonder how much that would be worth to the NRL in comparison the loss of revenue from Foxtel/Telstra. You would hope they worked it out and found that letting Foxtel/Telstra do what they wanted with the online component was well worth the angry fans. By that I mean the amount of money that Foxtel pays would outweigh the amount of money they would get from people paying for a season pass. It's goes back to which is better for the game and probably an argument that has merits to both sides. At the end of the day I really don't give a damn about the loss of revenue. Allow me to stream any game I want any time in at least 720p. Allow me to stream it at any time for the entire season. If I want to go back and watch round 3 then I should be able to. I will pay up to $250 a year for that ability! I am thinking the next time the TV rights are up for auction we will see most of the changes we want. [/QUOTE]
