I am a subscriber to Fox Soccer Channel, but many Spurs games haven't been played on the channel due to Setanta having rights. Just wondering where everyone else watches the games online. Currently have PPVLive but having problems. I wouldn't mind paying a small monthly fee, but Setanta Broadband wants $12 a month which is a little pricey to be sitting infront of a monitor.

not to mention, Setanta broadband doesn't even include premiership games. What I've just recently done is gotten ITVN, the only way you can get setanta in the US without a satellite. The service is almost brand new, just a month or 2 old, and is basically TV which runs through your internet connection. I just got it last week in time to watch the l'pool/spurs match, and it wasn't bad at all. It's $15/mo, but at least you can watch it on your TV, and the quality is almost as good as regular cable. There's threads about ITVN in the business/media forum, or check out itvn.com.

Hmm, ITVN sounds promising but yikes! 15 a month is tough. I'm a broke college kid and can barely afford the 5 a month for FSN.

Though ironically you're right up the road from me. Don't be surprised to see me knocking at your door for Portsmouth haha. In all seriousness we should grab a beer at one of the pubs around here that broadcast EPL.

Ever hear of Sopcast, pplive, etc., and not know what that is? Well, go to this (http://www.asiaplate.com/live.today.htm) page and learn more. If you have a high-speed Internet connection and trust this software (I do and have for months), you can watch just about every Champion's League, UEFA Cup, EPL, etc., game out there.

You'll notice each player has its own tutorial toward the bottom of the page, under the games being shown for the day.

Mac people, you are out of luck on this -- unless someone has written software specifically for OSX and I am not aware of it.

Hope this helps some people out.
