Server Issues. We are very aware that there have been system issues the past few days. In troubleshooting the system, it has been determined that the issue is at our provider and is hardware related. The provider was going to move us to a new server, however we are now told by the provider the issue is at the data center in St. Louis. They have offered to move us to a different datacenter on the East Coast or West Coast, however at this time we have declined the move to a different data center as it would affect the speed of connecting to about half our members.
We are waiting for more information from our provider, however we are trying to ride this out to stay in the same data center, so that when the server is fixed all users in the US will get the fastest connection possible.
If after some time the issue is not resolved we will be forced to move to another data center, if this happens there will be down time, as they will need to transfer everything to the new server and we will need to update the DNS and other settings for the new IP address of the new server. If we have to do this, the time it will take to move will be out of our hands.
We are going to try our best to weather through this, so we thank you in advance if you encounter any issues.
Sorry for the issue!

Not denying that their is truth. My only point is that EI is a choice and whether it is considered a rip-off is simply a matter of opinion, one in which I happen to believe it is not.Anything else off topic you care to discuss after Ice
I made my point. Obviously there is some truth to it. (rationalize rationalize rationalize.)
That's a good question. I too thought they were tied together. Perhaps it is because it is internet based they made an exception or it does not fit under the same terms?
Just thought of something. Since SkyAngel is an internet based provider, can one access MLB.TV through them?
Seriously... are my posts invisible or something?

Not talking about subbing to it. I'm talking about the asinine price to simply carry EI. It should cost the providers per subscriber, not one lump sum.
Sorry, I don't have time to read every post on an 11 page thread.
I guess we both had the same question. Does anyone know the answer to it?
Now there might be something to that. There was a wee-bit of hype regarding MLBnet being available thru Dish, not by virtue of a direct signal but by the ability of the ViP922 (or whatever it is) being able to stream content from MLB.tv internet service...
We could be looking at the same thing...it would at least make some sense if it was.
