    I was hoping they'd do this. Baseball has been offering downloads of games for a couple of years now.

    Does anyone know what the file format is?

    The downloads also include some very appealing features such as commercial and timeout-free coverage meaning action from whistle to whistle.

    Another feature to be added soon will allow users to search the content using event tags such as shots scored, assists, and rebounds of each player and then quickly be able to find and view that segment of video footage.
    That's cool.

    i think if you could manage to download the file, you could make it work pretty easily. there are workarounds to play windows media player content/streams through quicktime.

    Maybe... I tried it with a baseball game a couple of years ago and couldn't make it work.

    Problem is most of the video file converter programs are Windows only.

    I don't know about Macs, but there are several types of Linux apps that will run windows applications. I would think there would be something out there similar to that for a Mac, but I don't know.

    Anyone having a windows XP problem with this might want to try VLC media player. Not sure if it works for Macs, but I know if you don't have XP, VLC will still play just about any file format out there.

    If I recall, even VLC didn't play the baseball file on my Mac.

    But I may drop the $2.99 and give it a shot. I'll report back with my findings.

    If you try it from Argentina you only get a white screen with the following friendly legend

    "Region not allowed."

    It looks that since the NBA get Dracula as PR man they are getting better and better

    I get the same from across the planet.
    Pretty big "region".

    Reminds of that famous brits' quote.
    "Fog on channel: continent isolated."

    The commercial thing would be nice, but I wouldn't mind a few of those NBA commercials still coming up, like the Rob Thomas commercial in '05. That thing always got me pumped.

    Torrents of unauthorized NBA video are illegal. We don't promote game torrents here. Thanks.
