Wasn’t it $50 last year? And free all the years before that on promotocross.com?


I’m paying for my ticket to Hangtown and after that I’m downloading the rest of the season.

And???
You are about to spend $50 for 1 ticket and you're bitching about $55 for 12 live rounds with zero commercials breaks?

You're an idiot.

I would gladly pay $100 for NBC Gold.

FYI- I think NBC set everyone to Auto-Renew their subscription.

So if you don't plan on purchasing the pass this year, make sure NBC doesn't charge anyway.

Half the second motos aren’t live this year. NBC Gold is the only way to watch live races all season. I think mine already auto renewed.

There’s a difference between paying $50 to go see the laces LIVE with the pros flying by you less than 10 feet away, the pits, atmosphere, and everything else. I would gladly pay $50 every weekend to be at the race live.

But $55 for somthing that was free a couple seasons ago? No thanks...

Since you will gladly pay $100 for NBC Gold, why not PayPal me the extra $45?

Honestly when they came out with the NBC package last year I wasn't a fan, mainly because like you I didn't want to pay for something that was completely free just a year ago. But I eventually caved and bought and I have to say it was 100% worth it. Even with the higher price it is easily worth it. If you enjoy watching the races live then this is a no brainer.

I just wish I could pay $55 to watch all of supercross live. I had to get cable and I pay way more than $55 a month, let alone getting a whole season for that price.

Definitely worth it. The streaming service for Supercross was even more expensive and it was also worth the price IMHO.

I'll gladly pay if it doesn't have commercials. If it has commercials, it should be free (or really cheap).

Shame on NBC for charging consumers for a product that they produced for our enjoyment. Is your discount at your local moto shop not enough either and you want product for free?

I don't have a problem with paying 55 bucks but why can't they just let the race continue to go without the announcers during the commercials like they used to? Now it just goes black with a 'we'll be right back' screen.

That change was really lame. Watching the motos with no announcers and just the sound of the bikes and the fans was worth the price alone.

F’N Crimecast dropped MavTV in Michigan.
Looks like $55 for me.

I did not get it last year, but plan on doing it this year. If I am not able to start watching until after the first moto starts I don't want to start watching half way through. Can I start streaming from the start of the race? Or do I need to wait for all the racing is done and then watch the archive?

They keep the races uploaded for streaming after the live stream, so you can watch them whenever you want, all year.

Last year I couldn't stream from the beginning of the race after it had already begun, it took me right to where they were live. I had to wait until after the moto was over, plus 15-30min before it was available for streaming.

Qualifying coverage, and 24 moto's with no major commercial breaks. It's absolutely a steal.

they did keep broadcasting the race after they sent tv to commercial last year the only time the we'll be right back thing came up was between races

Oh really? My bad then, I could have swore it was the other way around. Good to hear! My favorite part of the broadcast.

People go spend $50 at Walmart before breaking a sweat! People forget if you spend money on the things you like, they magically get better every year. Go figure! Try going to a live national for less then $100, gas,hotel,food.. you know what, STFU. Wink Just do it.. Here is the link and code.
