iphone App MLB.com at bat 2010, worth getting?

[WoundedDuck]

A little steep for an App at $14.99. Is it worth getting?

Yeesh, third year, third price increase.

Personally, I *love* being able to listen to radio broadcasts of any game. The video comes about 2-3 minutes after a play, too. I will be dl'ing it soon enough, but my HDD on my desktop (which had my iTunes stuff) just completely crashed.

When I'm putting my 3 year old to bed, I'll sometimes listen to the Yankees game - my daughter wants to listen with me.

i bought it already as i have every year for the past 3. with just the ST games going on the jury is still out on it but over all it looks pretty good so far. a few more features i haven't played with yet but it appears to have improved over last years version.

PAID IT , GOT IT, LOVE IT

I feel pretty cheap thinking $15 is expensive anyway, even if it is for an App. If it's good, it's good and $15 ain't much. Guess I'll have to get it today

Get it! I can't get enough and the price is great for all that you can do.

Just thinking along the lines of iphone stuff.....

If you are mainly getting it for listening to games, there are radio apps out there that broadcast local stations all over. Some of them are free too. I know there's one that does the Detroit station.

I have the wonder radio app which gets every radio station but it will not play baseball games. At least it won't play baseball games from my local station.

Terrific app. Bummed that they raised the price again, but there are a few features so far that weren't there last year. I love being able to put my iPod in any dock in the house, or use the headphones and go mobile and listen to the Twins, Cardinals or whoever. Gameday on the go is awesome, too.

make sure you guys get the "fcb app" as well


search for tapa talk


then inside the $2.99 tapa talk app, search for Freedom Card Board and you will go right to it.

I got it for my storm and it is totally worth 15 bucks.

I got it for my iTouch, I love it so far. I listened to most of the Red Sox/Twins game today.

Hmm... I'll have to check it out. You might be right on the blackouts. I think some stations aren't allowed to broadcast over the internet.

Sling player mobile is always another option for those with sling players of course.

The day that Apple opened the App Strore i picked up MLB at Bat.

Then they made another in 2009.

Now another in 2010.

Great. I'm glad that other apps dont expire after a year.

This is what I hate about working nights... Id love this app on my Droid and MLB Extra Innings.... but since I nights... I sleep thru most of the games... or can only watch a few innings before I leave for work.

So what is the deal with this app?

Is it just audio, like game-cast on ESPN, or live tv feed?

Shep

It's only live tv feed if you have the mlb.tv subscription. for $14.99 you get audio for every game, box scores, videos, news and injury updates, at the ball park...which I'm not sure what that does yet, and I'm hearing more development is being added as the season progresses.

The key to this app being worth it is being able to WATCH every game LIVE (it syncs up flawlessly with your mlb.tv account)!!! You can listen to radio feeds too, but watching is the best part - and the quality is remarkable when you consider what you're doing - watching live streaming video on a cell phone. I had it last season and when they added the live video feed, I was addicted to it. I purchased the 2010 edition as well and can't wait for the season to start.
