Listening to the internet....costs money

PeterWH · Posted: Mon Mar 04, 2002 10:47 am

I have just found that one cannot listen to the footy on the web unless you subscribe and pay for it.
I was told that for $49:95 one can listen to the matches over the web.
I tried to listen to the Swans V Hawks and the Adelaide V Melb. and I was blocked because I hadnt paid for it.
Who is running the AFL site....them or Telstra?????
Can some one give me some ideas.
Catch you all later

Yeah Joel I have read that page,but it still mains to be seen WHY Telstra have to make more money out of the web sites.
There is provision to listen,but just apy your money and then you can.
Tel;stra even tried to talk me into going broadband and put it onto the existing phone bill....the cost an extra $56:95 per month and 2Gigibytes down load.
I am paying $24:95 per month and unlimited download and its suitable for me,so why pay the extra.
Catch you later

I agree Peter. Telstra are greedy and everyone knows that. Thanks Mike - For putting the link up.
