I am full agreement that we need the Pac-12 Network and we need other "regional" capabilities. However, for example, I don't have the regionals on my cable and there is no organic way to watch them on my TV. If I have to watch something on Pac-12 Mountain or whatever, i have to with just watch it on my iPhone or steam it from my phone to my apple tv. So ghetto. I'm just wondering why the Pac-12 can't have an app like ESPN, SEC, ACC, etc have. THEN, i'm also wondering that with all the cord cutters out there and people in areas where their cable doesn't support Pac-12 Networks, and the Pac-12 is so concerned about expanding its brand - why don't they have an a la cart method to consume their product.
HOWEVER - they way they execute this product is horrible. Like C-Dub mentioned, so may mistakes by the announcers, who by the way (an I love Bloom to death) sound like high school or public radio announcers. All of them. Then they comment over the ref's calls. The production team consistently comes back to live action from commercials late - can't count how many times a play has already been run when coming back from commercials. Or cutting to commercials before it's time. The audio is atrocious, and often times there is some sort of crackle or his that sounds like it's going to blow my speakers. I have to change channels just to make sure it's the Pac-12 channel and not my stereo.
And don't ever get me started on the app. That thing freezes like the app designers were like "what's more important, smoothly streaming the content, or making this the most annoying, buggy, ****ty, app in the entire App Store? I think the latter. Let's go with that."
But they've got me by the balls. There's no other option. F you Adam Smith.
