From Aussie and sick of paying $90 per month for 125 channels of shit so I can watch ama SX, mx. I sent an email to supercross live to ask what the deal is on getting a download of the races but no reply. I want to watch the gp's also to follow RV & co and I'm sure youth stream will be happy to take some coin in exchange for a live stream. Their normal gp shows are delayed and a load of crap anyway. Anyone got the inside info for ama?

They are definately missing a trick not having it so that fans outside of america can have and pay for an account to watch the races in their own time, i'd happily pay to be able to watch the supercross and motocross season.

Currently i stay up till 5-6am to watch most of the rounds on a shitty quality and probably illegal stream. To wake up on a sunday morning to watch the round in HD linked up to my tv would easily be worth $10 per round and i'm sure huindreds of thousand of fans would agree,

I really don't understand why this hasn't been done, it'll give the mx industry a much larger revenue and will put much more money in Feld's and the other organiser pockets. It's seems like a no brainer.

You can be pretty sure that there'll be a stream for every round of SX, the live rounds anyway.. last year they were all pretty good and I'm definitely getting the MXGP package again this year! last year every round was HD and archived straight away.. Not sure what you mean by delayed cause they've been live ever since I've been watching them..

The last couple of years I'd either stay up or get up to watch the nationals but this year I waited and watched the archives with the Hola add on and it was way better cause I actually enjoyed my sundays haha

They sometimes have deals for new accounts to lure the suckers in. I have to pay extra to get the sports channels, that used to be speed but now fox sports 5 or something. Would doubt that you could get the sports channels for that.
As you would know ( from aus) the SX is normally on Sunday lunchtime - right when we are out pounding laps. When you get home, the f**kers have substituted the SX for some golf, darts or f**ken poker or something.
When we went stateside to Millville this year, the bloody thing crapped out while we were away and didn't record anything. The bastards wouldn't give us a refund because we didn't report the fault. Got me buggered how we would have known it wasn't working!
Well, they can get stuffed. I'll just have to log on here and watch the you tubes when they come up.

I wish they would do a live stream, its 2015 and unbelievable really. they talk about expanding the sport and reaching out, FFS its the web, use it. They manage it for practice so why not the racing? back in 2009 or 2010 I used to get it via sky on espn hd but its not been back.

screw it though I get it online 24 hours later in HD anyway but live would be perfect as it would stop me being out of the loop for a day or so

Can you now subscribe strictly to Fox Sports on the Roku?

The Fox Sports Go App only works if you have a full cable subscription

I just got a Roku 3 and I LOVE it. Still figuring it out though. I have LiveStream, CBS Sports, and a few others, but I can't find the Fox Sports app? How do I get that? My cable company offers live tv on their website, which includes FS1, but that requires hooking up the laptop to go to their site. I really wish Roku had a browser.

That's not the same thing now is it....you aren't subscribing to the online feed you are getting shit on your mobile device because you already pay for cable.

I don't have cable.......That's the whole point.

I want to watch online without having to be gouged $80 a month for something I don't use.

You aren't paying for stuff you don't want. The people that pay $80/month and don't watch sports are subsidizing for the sports watchers. Sports channels are what keeps the cable and satellite companies in business and where the absolute vast majority of that $80 goes.

I don't pay to watch the races or any other channel all you need is a good internet connection and a good invite only torrent site and a Gbox from amazon. Every channel in the world..........thousands of channels for a one time fee less than $100 bucks.

Party on.

Sheesh, showing my age here. No idea what most of these websites are. Guess I'll just have a crack at it when the races start.
I'll bet feld has a deal with fox sports or whoever and won't stream it as that would take eyeballs away from pay tv and their advertisers.

If slicknick610 didn't exist, I would literally have no way of following the races. It's not even like we have a pay-per-view option over here, which is a real shame and quite shocking in this day in age.

Back in 2000 I used to stay up to watch the race on Channel 5 at stupid o'clock in the morning, and even then it was broadcast a week or two after the event, so we were like 2 races behind the real world!

At least we get the GP's live though I guess. Would be nice to have both though. Meh.

Here's to slicknick from all of us outside the USA. You rock. Cool

To be honest, there's usually good HD YouTube uploads come Monday afternoon (UK time) to allow us to watch it on Monday night, just means staying off MX websites for a day or so! It's just a matter of finding and subscribing to a reliable upoader (they seem to change each season!). I use slicknick610's torrents sometimes and his stuff is quality, but the YouTube uploads are handier (no downloading, etc.) and usually released around the same time.

If I'm right in saying, the races are being shown mainly on Fox Sports? (any correction is welcome!). I recently discovered an app for my android tablet, XBMC (you can get it on your computer and Roku devices, not sure about Apple devices). It's a bit confusing to setup - I'm pretty good with most computer stuff and found it pretty tough - I'm sure someone here will be able to explain how to get it up and running.

Once installed and configured correctly, you can get access to pretty much any TV channel, movie and TV show in the world, all in pretty close to HD quality. I'll be watching the SX on it come January (if I can manage to stay up to 5am!!). I've used it to watch boxing and some football (soccer) and it seems to be working perfectly. I get all the American Sports channels too.
