I work in Thailand. As most expats here know, at the beginning of this latest NFL season TrueVisions - the only satellite TV provider in the country thought it would be a good idea to drop NFL altogether. They were nice enough to say sorry when thousands of us emailed (and thanks for your US$65 a month). That was it for me. I cancelled immediately and contacted Mike.
I watched all the NFL games and now I am thoroughly enjoying Linsanity! It's great as MSG channel is available on DirecTV so you can watch every Knicks game. Of course you get everything else on American TV too, which makes TrueVisions look like a joke - and only slightly less expensive.
I use the SD version and with Mike's proxies I stream at 1000Kbps to 1,500Kbps, which gives perfect audio and a very good picture. I'm sure if I spent more than $20 a month on my Internet connection I could get a package that would be good enough for HD.
Overall, very happy and can't imagine going back to TrueVisions.
