    The live+ announcement didn't disappoint. I was expecting it but with the price being reasonable and they're bringing in Dylan as the host... SOLD, SOLD, SOLD! Honestly this TV package is pretty impressive. Good stuff

    Now all we need is a MA, WSBK, MOTOGP combined online streaming package, with archived races.... But it's a start...lol (an awesome one.)

    I'm slightly frustrated that WorldSBK and MotoGP don't have a combined one, especially since Dorna runs both of them, and they both use videopass.

    Assuming that since they now have a paid streaming package that things will no longer be streamed for free, he would be losing the free streaming.

    I wish BSB would also provide a sub streaming service...

    Such a huge step in the right direction for MA. Way to go!

    And yes, I'll buy a subscription immediately.

    ghetto customs Who's that Parrish guy?

    I truly hope anyone that can, should buy into the webcast subscription. It helps us all by having viewers and money going back into racing. TV is obviously limited to some but not all as the Internet can be connected just about anywhere.

    During the podcast, Wayne explained that MA has worked since the Bein hiccup to get a package together that would showcase all races, qualifing and practices, for all classes to more importantly, showcase the riders for sponsor efforts. Sponsors need to get their money's worth and this is going to be good for everyone.

    Thanks guys! And quit bitchen about the price. You spend more than that a week on booze...

    looking at the websites and content production, it seems like its 2 very different teams of developers and producers for each series. WSBK is still lagging behind in quality compared to GP. I'm not surprised they arent combined and don't rly expect them to ever be.

    Having Facebook/ Youtube access to more racing will help grow the sport beyond the existing fans that will pay the streaming fee. It’s cool everyone can get the SBK race through FS2 and NBCS though.

    In the Off Track podcast with Bice and Carruthers, Wayne Rainey mentioned that the races will likely find their way into YouTube after some time. They said there were a lot of questions about Youtube streaming and there may still be something to do there.

    Since MA owns the rights and the production, they can drive this how and where we want. So good positioning and a lot of content that will be available so I’m excited. Good job MA.

    Not sure if it was mentioned here but I pinged RRW about archiving races and they confirmed that yes you will be able to watch NON-Live races on the streaming app. So you wont have to be watching live to be able to watch. Thought that was important information.

    This seems like a really great development for MA and is some of the best news to come out of US pro roadracing in a long time. Its good for the fans the teams and the sponsors. That being said, it would be nice to be able to watch some of the races here in the Europe without buying a subscription. Team owners here are also unlikely to buy a subscription and they may be interested in becoming familiar with the riders. Having them on the youtubes or whatever later would be much appreciated.
