MSG Paid App Coming?

We talked about cutting the cord last year, but my wife & I watch a lot of sports. We’re Rangers fans but I’m a Yankee fan & she likes the Mets.
 

So basically, the best price we could find to get all 3 of those, and some other cable channels, was DIRECTV.
 

They offer a package that includes MSG, YES Network, and SNY, and basically most of the networks that we watch. The cost is $90 a month. Just the cost of these 3 paid apps, when they are ultimately available, would come close to that anyway.  
 

Plus, I can watch just about every channel on the DTV app on my phone and it comes in a whole lot better than the MSG app. 

In 2 years they will bump the price up about $50- $75 more a month. 

 

Cable providers get the bad name for constantly fucking over their long time customers and giving these promotional deals to new customers.  

 

I had Direct TV bundled with my At&t cell. I really liked the product.  Hardly ever lost signal and the picture was better than the cable option we have. They lost me when the promotion was over and jacked the price up and wouldn't give us a newer or similar deal. 

 

Our cable company did the same prior to getting DTV. Unfortunately Fios somehow isn't available in my area. Local cable/internet company has a god damn monopoly going on up here is the Poconos. It's disgusting.

$10 a game though. 

I don't watch anything else on MSG. 

 

Figure 70 something (I don't know how many games go to National  TV) dollars for MSG .   

 

I'll take that. Their programming sucks. I don't care about the Knicks,  they aren't carrying Mets games..  

 

$70 ish dollars for the Rangers ain't bad. Just need SNY to do their own app and I could get rid of Fubo which is now $95 a god damn month. 


Found Gallant’s burner ^

$30 a month is crazy talk. You essentially need it from October-April (for NYR) which instead of paying a full year $360, it would be $210 which isnt as bad.   I don't watch anything else on MSG so if I were to go this route (which i'm not) it would be for 7 months.  

 

Better off just getting a VPN for $100 for the year, and getting ESPN+, therefore you can connect "out of market" and get the Rangers games plus every other game that they carry.

Had to add to that, why can't I just pay half the money for Ranger games?

Ok I was wrong.  Upon further review, you can access MSG+ with a provider subscription.  My mistake.  You have to actually make an MSG+ account first before you can give your provider info.  That is what caught me off guard.

Yea. The app sucks though kept losing connection. Meanwhile my internet is flying I kept checking

Its terrible.  Just like MSG Go was terrible.  I opened it in a new window and dragged it to the side of the screen so I could have a split screen of the game and the game day thread in another window.  As soon as you drag the window to the side of the screen it prompts you to download the app.  It won't show the stream.  Ok no problem, I'll just size the windows accordingly manually and it works.  Fucking stupid, but at least it works.  Now I keep getting an overlay on the stream that says "You've reached your max" or something along those lines.  Reached my max what?  What the ever loving fuck are you talking about?  I reloaded the window and its gone.  Whatever, I still say fuck you MSG lol.
