Anyone use [url= http://video.eurosport.es/eurosport-player/streaming-player.shtml ]Eurosport Player?[/url]
Is it worth the money?

Cheers.

I have used it and consider it much cheaper than paying for a Sky subscription. (I have Freesat for my telly)

I usually subscribe for the spring classics and the Giro and then cancel the subscription until July (am just about to reinstate it for the TdF)

You can watch Eurosport 1 or 2 live broadcasts. They also have Video on Demand which shows the footage without commentary.

No commentry on video footage, hmmmmmm! At 9,90€ for 3 months it's probably worth a punt.

Thanks.

tried it for the giro, in a nut shell....it's shite.
would hang, not start at times and the quality was very poor considering it's a paid service. I'd avoid it

Used it with none of the above problems. You can't use it abroad though when you're traveling which is a pain.

bit odd on a mac, i can get hd through Firefox but not safari and standard def is vice versa. As for quality it is fine. I guess the only issue is line speed, a crap line will lead to buffering but that applies to any video.
