Re: Twitter wins NFL Thursday night streaming rights
This is a step in the right direction, I would hope that one day all the games are available via free stream, especially the games that are on cable only. (Legal streaming that is).

Re: Twitter wins NFL Thursday night streaming rights
I think legal forms of streaming will be the almost only way of getting content in the future. Most people want their content when it suits them, not when it happens to come on a set time on TV: Sporting events will of course be on a scheduled time to be watched live but most other shows and programming will be on demand.

Re: Twitter wins NFL Thursday night streaming rights
Yeah this is lame. I csnt stand Twitter and all this bs. Social media is getting too important to people in this country. I just want to watch football. I don't want a stupid Twitter account. Irritating.
