DirecTV exclusive Sunday Ticket is 'in the consumers' best interest' {Engadget HD}
Nov 12th 2009 6:24PM Don't forget, it's not just about the local affiliates with NFL teams. It's much more about the local affiliates outside of NFL markets. It would be a lot harder to sell local ads on those affiliates if more people were watching Sunday Ticket games than the local games.
Is the NFL Sunday Ticket coming to Verizon FiOS? {Engadget HD}
Sep 14th 2009 9:10PM If NFL Sunday Ticket exclusivity ended, the networks wouldn't pay nearly as much for broadcasting rights. The OTA networks in 30 markets with NFL teams aren't the only markets that bear the costs for those broadcasting rights. Dilute their broadcasting exclusivity, ratings, and advertising revenue by allowing all cable/satellite networks to carry Sunday Ticket and they'd surely balk at paying as much...unless they had some exclusivity like Fox does with Saturday baseball. Can't get those games out of market anywhere offline. Not saying it's right, but it is what it is.
The NFL Sunday Ticket package is worth way more than the MLB Extra Innings Package and NBA League Pass, and the DirecTV exclusivity is part of the reason.

Ask Engadget HD: Netflix or Blockbuster -- best by-mail rental service? {Engadget HD}
Feb 18th 2009 3:05PM My experience was the opposite. Constantly throttled whenever I wanted something from Netflix on blu-ray. I say blockbuster hands down.

Feb 15th 2009 11:39AM I am actually of the opinion that the SurePress screen is GREAT!
I have always had trouble typing on touch screens with my gigantic hands, but using the click-screen for me has been just like typing on a phone with a keyboard. I don't have any trouble at all and I like it much better than phones that have just the regular touch screen.
