Well - what a lot of fuss that was. The Football Association Premier League Ltd obtained a High Court injunction to prevent FirstRow Sports from streaming live football on the Internet.
Day one of the Premier season and guess what - there are at least 7 streaming sites showing Liverpool v Stoke online, right now. At 3p.m. other Premier League games are available.
Indeed, one website has changed its name by just one letter to overcome any ban.
Seems the FAPLL - nor the High Court - will never stop it
Has it become 'Neolive.eu' or am I looking at the wrong one. FrontRow was the best for me.
As for your OP, I think it'll be impossible to stop, ok they can force sites to close down but such is the Internet you'll always be able to find streaming of live games. The pronunciation is funny on Fox soccer (US) for eg: Mainchister and Tottenhaim.
As with everything else in this country, if they stopped overcharging then these websites wouldn't need to exist. I'd rather watch it on TV but I'm not paying Murdoch £50 a month for the privilege. And as soon as they bring down the price of DVDs, CDs, etc................
Thanks for the links BB
