motogp.com LAG

For those of you who subscribe to motogp.com I have a question for you: Are the videos all super slow and choppy, like there are a million other people on the site at the same time? I cannot even play their smallest of videos without it skipping every millisecond! I tried in IE and Mozilla but no go on either browser... I'm fuming over here after dishing out $60 for Nothing!

That kept happening to me at the end of last season..hence the reason I didn't renew my subscription this year. Some people have complained and some others have said it was ok. Maybe it also depends on the quality of your internet connection?

Qatar qualifying was ruined, couldn't get the live video link for the last 40 minutes.

But believe it or not that's not the worst problem I have. Logging in & staying logged in seem impossible, sometimes it won't recognise me at all & I have to go away before I smash it!!!! & Once I am logged in, at anytime I switch pages or video I run the risk of being logged out again. It's just random, & the feedback service they have is tihs.

No mate, this is why I said it before, it is each ones responsibility to give good use of it, and I am not holding anybodies responsibility myself. I do not see any difference between taping races on a VCR than on a file, if anyone wants to put them out for sale against any law is their own problem, not mine. I can only tell you that you need to buy the necessary software to record them, and it is not that expensive doing it right. You can try it and decide not to buy if you do not like it.

Now, on the business & sponsor side... I really do not understand why right holders do not let people record races freely, even give them away. Let me explain, really the old races are old news, even if someone that has not watch a past race is told the score somehow, if a fan, will end up watching a rerun or a taped one, so will end up seeing all the sponsor's ads. On the other hand, even if anyone watches an old race lots of times, will also end up watching all the sponsor's ads again and again. Reason why the sponsors themselves pay those amounts of money for their ads been showed on the first place... though ending up increasing their sport audiences obviously, anyone would want to watch the missed races!

its just greed mate,they want to milk every penny out of it,i agree with you ,you should be able to give it or use for your own ,which to ne honest i thought you could,

But then their ‘greed’ makes ‘em stupid, cause if they end up increasing sport audience & viewers, they would end up earning more $$$... I’ve seen taped races and now there is more fans around than a couple of years ago, without doing anything wrong, I have contributed for more people to watch the sport, even just talking more about it. Their ‘greed’ makes ‘em stupid!
