So tired of this blackout bull****!!!

First and foremost, the exorbitant price tag of $149/yr left me with high expectations, it was frustrating to find out that aside from the blacked out games, now, I'm also unable to access certain games, arbitrarily confined to the confines of Apple TV exclusivity. This lack of accessibility not only feels discriminatory but also undermines the inclusivity that should be inherent in a streaming service of this caliber. And then, there's a barrage of ads shown, not just during breaks but also while the play is ongoing splitting the TV screen in half to show the ads. Just letting these advertisers know that we are NOT supporting the products that interrupt our enjoyment of watching the games of our favorite teams.

Just terrible. Freezes every single half inning. I called and was given the usual advice to reload the app and restart Roku. Does not help. No problem with any of the many other apps on my Roku. The app does work on my phone, so I am now mirroring games. (PS - no problem with condensed games or highlights, just the live game.)

In the old app I used to be able to get to the video of the condensed games without seeing the final score. This is impossible in the current layout, even when selecting “hide scores” in the settings. Many of the “improvements” to the layout are exactly the opposite. Please cut back the screen candy and create a user interface that is clean and makes sense. Video playback just halts often and I need to close and reopen the app which means navigating through the minefield of visible scores once more. I watch on a Samsung The Frame TV and on an iPad Air 4th gen. We live in The Netherlands.

The whole blackout thing is the reason why I’ll never subscribe to anything ever again. The entire reason I subscribe is so I can watch my favorite team? And since that’s not possible I will never be giving them my hard earned money

They double billed me, failed to recognise it, blamed it on Apple, then finally admitted it but responded by cancelling my subscription and only giving one refund. I've had to ring them twice from the UK and still not resolved. Absoutely horrific service - will take legal action as needed until second payment is refunded.

It becomes torture being forced to watch the same 10 terrible adds over and over without being able to skip ever. no longer bearable after just a week.

Very difficult to watch preseason baseball now on the TV or my computer. I already canceled my subscription for next year because I've already paid for this year and I'm getting nothing for it. I start watching a game on the TV it just keeps going in and out it's a little better on my computer but then all of a sudden you think you're going to a commercial and nothing and it'll come back on 3 hours later and play the game again from the beginning. MLB what are we paying for? This is ridiculous never had these problems in past seasons. I also have subscriptions to the NFL and NBA and hockey and have no problems at all. But somebody inside your organization needs to get on the programmers and get these technical things worked out so people get what their paying for. If I'm watching a game on cable through my cable subscription never a problem but when you're streaming with your MLB it's terrible.
