Is it just American IPs or is this for the entire world? .... worldsbk.com, .......s! ....... sell-outs. Why is it when an entity is doing everything right and expands by giving people what they want, they become drunk with their success and start to alienate their base?

I don't think it was them. I think it was the media providers in the countries they list. Those companies (for the US, the fine dumb ..... at Speed and Fox) got angry about this.
To be honest. I would rather pay to watch the races online through MotoGP or WSBK than pay a cable bill to watch the race at 4 in the morning on a Tuesday because a new episode of Pinks or Pimp my Truck is on.

Never watched it, but I am sure it is another fine television series.
How does Fox get it so right with shows like House and Family Guy, but screw it up with shows like that?

Because they are using the same parameters but trying to apply them to what they think motorsports viewers want to see.

I think some blame falls on Infront as well. They get a competitive American rider, invest in the US demogrpahic with the Miller event, and attract a really good field. And how do they promote that? With a piss poor TV package without the option to at least subscribe to see races online.
I guess I am done with this series. There are races being shown on sunday that receive much better coverage than the chopped, commercial-laden garbage on speed. And I work Tuesdays at 1 PM, so I can't catch race 2 and supersport.
Pathetic.

The only thing I look at on the site for is the results of WSS qualifying. I can't get any video and their live timing is a joke.
The series is good though........... I forgive them, (for now).

Torrents my friend Torrents...It's not live but it's pretty damn close to live....within 3-4 hrs of race finish and good quality.

They've cancelled Family Guy on two separate occasions, so they've only gotten it partially right really.
