I should add that MLB's blackout rules (http://mlb.mlb.com/NASApp/mlb/mlb/subscriptions/mlbtv.jsp) got considerably more onerous this year: "Local Live Blackout: ALL LIVE MLB.TV games will be blacked out in both teams' home telecast markets and in Japan." IOW, if your team has a TV contract you can't watch their games if you live within the local market, which is pretty broadly defined, something like 40-50 miles radius. This used to apply only to home games. Until I get a Senate committee to look into this in depth I need a solution for Real Americans to watch their baseball on their computers! It's generally not a problem for me since I live out of my own team's market, but I've received a couple of complaints. Also I recommend my column from 2 years ago on this: http://www.eweek.com/article2/0,1759,1617714,00.asp. It has one of my favorite opening paragraphs.
