Thinking about getting World.

[The Horse 0]

Is it worth it? I''ve got a season ticket but usually watch the highlights several times after a game and at £3.99 it doesn''t seem too bad?

I subscribe it is worth the money.

I think its brilliant, well worth the subscription, good message board too, and if you have any problems with it BC, give me a yell.

Don''t bother getting it if you have a Mac like me, it doesn''t work!

It should do star, have you contacted them at CW?

Do any of your mates subscribe? If so, just use their details. It works fine and multiple users can sign in at the same time!

Thanks for the help guys! Much appreciated. I think I''ll get it when I get home tonight.

Really? In that case, I''ll pay a bit towards it and share membership? [;)]

[/quote]I didn''t think that was the case Wiz, because of the DRM on the feeds it only works with computers running Windows, which is the same for a few things on the net, and it says so in the T & C''s as well.  I may be wrong, but it''s the whole reason I haven''t bought CW while I''ve been at uni!

Just make windows media player your default player Chuck, then click on the Library tab at the top and set the modem speed to highest setting

I assume you have broadband.

Deal. I''ll just pay for it all and you can take a few quid off something on our next away day [;)]

Yep, 3 of us, possibly more, use his sign-in details but he picks up the tab!

I hope not! I am beginning to regret openning my mouth now!

If you get to go to the matches and live in the region to pick up Radio Norfolk for the away games I see very little point in it.  I only get it for the commentary as I live in the North East so can''t pick it up on a radio and the BBC is blocked during match days which I find disgraceful as I''ve paid a TV licence but that’s a separate argument entirely!  That’s not to mention the technical difficulties that I seem to suffer on a regular occurrence and the fact that you are usually guaranteed to miss at least a couple of halves each season when they stream the wrong game or simple don''t stream anything!Wiz, how you can say its a decent message board is beyond me, the software is awful, its the reason I left and primarily use this one now.  The fact you have to scroll across horizontally on a post to read it all is quite frankly unacceptable in this day and age, especially on 24" monitor running at 1900x1200!I know I''ve had a rant about how bad it is must seem a bit hypocritical as I''ve had it for about 6 years, but they are a monopoly (boy do they abuse that) and I have no alternative if I wish to not watch the match on Ceefax!PS.  The video highlights on the Virgin Media site are free to view and are usually the same as the un-extended ones.

Wiz, how you can say its a decent message board is beyond me, the software is awful, its the reason I left and primarily use this one now.  The fact you have to scroll across horizontally on a post to read it all is quite frankly unacceptable in this day and age, especially on 24" monitor running at 1900x1200!

All I do Christov is right hand click on a paticular thread, select ''open in new tab'' and the new tab page fits!

[Christov 3]

Thanks Wiz I may give that a try, although last time I was there (about 2 years ago!) it was dead, I think everybody had left and gone else where.

I subscribed yesterday and I''m quite impressed. The commentary and highlights will be very handy for away games. Dont know why it''s taken see so long to do it really. How quickly do the match highlights get put up?

It varies Georgie, Wolves are up now, but no sign of the 15-20 minute highlights of that game as they often do.

I had it before I moved to beccles, but now Broadband speed a lot slower, hence no longer works I think you need over 2gb, and I''m not sure if Ican buy something to speed it up

I have had world for years and it really is a life-saver for me being exiled 185miles away when i''m at home.It is a bit irritating that it is a monopoly and there is not really an option if you want the commentary.I primarily use it for commentary although i often watch the highlights too - they are normally up on a monday evening from a Saturday game and it varies for mid-week games but usually within 48hours.The commentary is fairly good, and having World also means you can listen to any other games that are being played - I often use this on an evening for background noise, if we aren''t playing.
