atdhe.net was known to stream games airing on Al Jazeera... thank goodness those terrorists will no longer be polluting the internet (oh wait). Thanks, big bro!

So does anyone know if the NBA league pass broadband is any good? I may have to give that serious consideration now. Also, does it extend into the playoffs?

Oh, that totally makes sense then - it's not like America has ever been a proponent of free speech...

Wow, they (whoever 'they' may be) have really made an effort to get rid of numerous streaming sites. I'm sure there will be alternatives in the foreseeable future, but for now it's gotten much more difficult to find a wealth of live streams.
It's interesting, though, that this long-overdue operation to protect America from any horrible harm may not affect websites that are hosted on servers outside of the United States. One would think that law enforcers in the U.S. can't control what the streaming sites in foreign countries do...

Rest assured that Mavs fans in need of live streams will be fine. As mentioned, atdhe.net is already back under a new domain name and it's the same with other (once) shut down stream providers. Thankfully, many alternative sites have mysteriously found their way on my screen in the last hour, although I, of course, have great respect for American law and would never engage in or support any actions that violate the law...

League pass broadband is generally excellent - consistent quality, etc. The big caveat is that if you live in the Dallas area, everything you care about (that is, Mavs games) is going to be blacked out because it airs on FSSW/TXA21 and they don't want to compete with that. My husband has been able to get around local blackout restrictions for Mavs @/vs Warriors games (we're in the Bay Area) by VPNing into Amazon's EC2 servers in North Carolina somewhere, so I assume you could do the same to get Mavs games in Dallas... if you were into that sort of thing.
And no, it does not extend into the playoffs, which really sucks. I think you can only get playoff games on International League Pass.

Anyone have a good (non world feed) FOX SuperBowl link? Is one still allowed to ask such things?
