I also want to know
Anyone know when this will become available to order? And how much it will be (In English Pounds).
No, but they should announce it soon. Hopefully they'll use a different platform than that RayV crap. The one they used for the playoffs, with HD, would be nice.
Last season it was €67, I wouldn't mind to pay a little more for an improved service (especially better access to archived games).
Yeah RayV sucked, the only major complaint was that you couldn't start the game when you wanted, if i'm paying decent money I want to be able to start the game when I want to.
Just how big is NBA basketball over there Muser?? Is it a growing market or is it barely a blimp, like soccer over here?
It's not too big, the NFL is getting quite a big following over here though.
I'm going to see the Jazz/Bulls tomorrow in London and they sold out the 02 arena which has a capacity of 23,000 within the first 2 days so there is a bit of a following.
Damn you.. It's airing on nba tv i think.. so I will have to Tivo it. How many nba games have played in the O2.. I would imagine it is a pretty big event for nba fans there seeing as it is a rarity.
This is the third year they have done it, first year it was Celtics/Twolves and last year it was Heat/Nets.
Really hoping for the Spurs to come over in the future, but this game looks like it's gonna be damn good.
ing cj miles ruptured his thumb in practice and has to fly home for surgery. Out 2 months I would guess. What an idiot. He was the high scorer against the nugs last week. Too bad, I thought this would be his breakout year!

It's working now - Available for the first time in my country
Still needs CC or PP though.
I think league pass would definitely help towards building a fan base that's for sure.
Can we download games?
Thanks for the link 228
a better question would be, when does league for people in the states become available.
It's available through my provider (in Southern California) October 27.
Does anyone know if you can get int' league pass in france?
You can't download games. You probably can, but it's technically demanding. It's not part of the system.
Yeah, I think it's available in France.
IMO, last season it was a bargain, even though some problems and the fact that archived games are played in loop, as Muser said (that was my biggest peeve as well). The system they used in the playoffs, with HD, was pure gold.
Last year it wasnt available in my country so I emailed them several times until months later, I got an email back saying they made it available. Of course I already had an NBA member login from several years before. When I tried to order NBA ILP, it would tell me that my email was already registered. So I sent several emails asking if I needed to open another email account just to order NBA ILP... and I'm still waiting for an answer. Looks like I will just open another email account, but I think the service is really terrible. I've ordered stuff like cookie cutters from the states, 40 dollars of merchandise (nothing) and had much much better service.
better than nothing I suppose.
Bump
Check the link. It's available now
What do you think?
What’s the best option?
I don't know. I'm confused because apparently they're still using RayV (according to this page - http://ilp.nba.com/Pages/en/SystemRequirements.aspx), but the demos use flash and if the archives are going to be on demand, then it can't be RayV (that is p2p based).
I had a chat with them and they confirmed the archives will be not be in loops and that one will be able to forward and rewing. So, this indicates it's a different technology. Maybe. The guy couldn't tell. The HD will have 1200kbps (the HD 800kbps). I don't know how high will be the definition with a 1200 bitrate. It should be at least 1800kbps. I asked when would the SD demo be available: "the HD system will be fully functional before the start of the season". What else? Some countries have a pre-season $10 discount (mine does).
I'm not sure if the HD/SD difference is worth $50. I'd like to watch a HD working before buying it. $50 pays half of the EuroleagueTV subscrpition and if the difference in quality isn't notable, then the 48 hours archive won't do it for me (there are too many games in the NBA to be worried about that). I'm not even sure if the SD demos are what one is going to get. I'll talk to them again next week to see if there are news and decide then.
Thanks for the info mo!
Keep it coming.
Yes. Check it here: Availability
You're 100% German am I right?
Great that it's available, I'm thinking about getting lp, but I'd like to see a demo first and try it for a day or two. I don't know whether my broadband connection can handle it via streams from the U.S.
Anybody here who knows a link where one can try it?
