BU.tv

Piss Poor!!!!! BU should be embarassed as hell. They should also hand out refunds. But, they aren't and they won't. So next year I won't.

Ditto. I just deleted my credit card info so that they can't auto renew me in September. I'll reconsider when/if Bradley Basketball becomes relevant again.

Agree! I was on the chat when AZ let me know it was on ESPN3. Why can ESPN3 stream the game to look nice and with BU.tv I had to ask the chatters what the score was because I could not make it out?:mad:

Just wondering what "relevant" would entail, and how exactly that might alter the streaming quality.

One definition of I found of "relevant" says: "having significant and demonstrable bearing on the matter at hand."

To me Bradley basketball is no longer relevant since it no longer holds a significant and demonstrable bearing on my time. In other words, I no longer change plans, or drop everything just to tune into a Bradley game. BU basketball no longer gets me "fired up", excited, and in a good and spirited mood. Quite the contrary now where it brings me down and makes me long for "the good old days", whenever the he!! that was. :lol:

Back when Bradley basketball was relevant I had no problem paying hard earned money to watch that choppy, grainy, and inconsistent video broadcast known as B.tv. If I couldn't make out what was happening I'd just imagine "good things", because I was certain that they were probably really happening. Now, when I watch that garbage put out by B.tv I find myself imagining bad play after bad play, poor rebounding, wide open 3's by the opposition, turnovers by DSE, stup!d fouls by Egolf, poor substitution and play calling by Les, poorly timed technical fouls, empty seats, and worst of all that God-awful weave offense!

There. How's that? ;) :lol:

How about this! Willing to do what it takes to watch the games:
  • fighting with the significant other about who gets more attention
  • skipping out of work early
  • dreaming of heading to St. Louis for the Valley Tourney
  • finding a bar and sitting by yourself to be able catch a game
  • and finally perhaps pissed about the quality of the streaming but glad that you can at least watch the game

    That would be relevant.
 
I only had the monthly subscription for the basketball season, but I cancelled it. Why should I pay for something when I can't even be sure if I can use it.
 
I requested my money back! I tried to get the stream 1/2 way through the 2nd 1/2 and instead of the screen saying Playing it said Closed!:mad: Tired of this poor quality of a paid service. The service did not deliver on what I paid for so I want my money back, PERIOD! Also there was no reason why the MSU stream was so lousy. They have state of the art equipment down there. I also complained about that and did not receive an answer. Who do we need to contact at BU? Does the AD know about this? If so and nothing is done I'll question his resolve for quality. Quality starts at the top and transpire throughout the organization all the way to the ushers of games.

For the record SFP I had no problems with the stream today. I had it on all game but I didn't really watch it until the last minute since I was watching the Bears lay an egg.

I'd send an e-mail to Cross and copy it to Glasser if I were you. No doubt you'll be able to find their e-mail addresses on the Bradley website.
 
I'm guessing they only have so many concurrent streams available and since I came in late I was denied! :mad: This would make sense but there usually is an open policy just in case demand is higher then what is licensed. I paid to see the games and I expect regardless of when I tune in, that I can see it.

I also expect a response from the provider when I take my time to type of a complaint. I still see no reason why the BU.tv stream for the MSU game was horrendous while ESPN3 was fantastic for the same game!

Good luck. I got nowhere with them a few years ago. Bradley shouldn't use it anymore. People need to stop paying for it.
