    did you have any problems with the stream.

    the free one i used last night tended to freeze up at times
    I dropped the 40 bucks for preseason too and caught the first quarter on my laptop with no problem. But, then it slowed down and finally froze up. I was major pisced. The "demo" they had worked just fine, I figured I was good to go...not.

    Logged into the Planet chatroom in the 3rd quarter and MJG turned me on to that "justintv" linke which adjusted it's streaming stuff several times while I was watching and worked just fine!

        That's funny . . . I tried all of the other links provided in the thread during commercials and none of them worked for me, or they would freeze up quickly. I was the one who posted the justintv link and I wanted something different because the full screen was kinda pixelated . . . but I kept going back to it and it was seemless for me. partial screen mode was pretty clear too. What I would recommend to those who were having trouble is to hard-connect your internet, if you were using wireless. I did so on my laptop, and while I couldn't plug it into my bigscreen in the living room, which is a bummer, I found my signal strength to be perferct. Maybe that's if the problem for some. But keep that advice for two weeks from now . . . the Steelers are live on NFLN on Saturday night.
