    I am pondering resubscribing to Fox Soccer Channel for next season. It will be either that, or SerieAtV.

    Some questions, if I may

    1. Did FSC show every Juve Serie A match this season?

    2. Regarding SerieAtv:

    a. Did they show all the matches? Coppa?

    b. for when (did not say if :D) we return to CL next year, do they show CL matches?

    c. my home connection is fairly slow--I previewed some matches, and live it was very choppy. Are the archived matches any better? (ie, more smooth to watch--without pauses)


    Thanks, and Forza Juve!

    1. No but I would say they have showed about 85%, maybe more of Juve's matches. They normally show 2 Serie A games Sat. and 2 Sunday so Juve is usually featured.

    2.a. You can choose which games you want to watch live - Coppa is available if you buy the Season Pass.

    2.b. Almost positive ESPN and ESPN Desportes only have rights to the CL

    2.c. If you have a fairly slow connection I would venture to say that anything you watch, streamed or archived is going to be pretty painful - stick with FSC and watch Serie A on ESPN360 (if your provider carries it), they just signed on to broadcast Serie A

    A couple of follow ups, if I may, re: ESPN360:

    1. Are the matches archived,ie, not live?

    2. If the answer to 1 is "yes", how long after the match do they show up?

    3. Do they have a schedule somewhere?

    I called ESPN360, and they seemed to indicate that the answer to #1 is "yes". Weren't sure about the answers to#2 or #3:confused: They carried this weekend's Juve match.
