Anyone out there have any experience with Extra Innings or MLB TV. I'm a Braves fan, but watch a lot of teams for fantasy purposes.

Suggestions?

I had Extra Innings for last season and ordered it again today. I loved it. All Braves and Cardinals games, as well as many Reds games, are blocked out in Memphis on Extra Innings. Thankfully, you can watch most of them on other channels here. Lots of baseball though. I highly enjoyed it.

Extra Innings definitely. I've had it for like 8 years

They're really not 'blacked out', you just have to know where to look for them. Whatever team happens to be playing the Cards, Reds or Braves, their station is blacked out but you can get the Cards, Reds or Braves affiliate. It's usually in the Fox tier of channels. MLB TV just came on line this winter so it's be interesting to go through a season with them. I've really grown to like the station just like I have with NBA.tv and NFL Network. They really add alot when you get tired of the same talking heads on ESPN.

mlb tv is great I have had since it came out

My brother-in-law has this to watch the Red Sox and he seems to enjoy it. We were talking this weekend about how he could hook up his computer to his big screen TV to watch it that way rather than on his computer screen.

Does MLB TV black out any games? I wouldn't think so, but it's a question I needed to ask.

MLB TV is the way to go. They ditched silverlight from a year ago and went with flash and the product is 100x improved over anything they've offered in the past. It's the highest quality of streaming video that I've ever seen. You also have the added functionality of being able to pause, rewind, fast forward, and jump to any inning. For $80 less overall and the ability to connect to my TV anyways, mlbtv was the easy choice in my mind.

Yeah, it's subject to the same blackout rules as TV. It uses your IP address to determine a location and then blacks you out of games in your market.

So blackouts of my Bravos any way I go, even though with Comcast I get maybe 30% of games. And they're not in HD.

Great.
