I basically feel the same way. Plus...I just don't want to sit in front of a screen all weekend watching pool when I could be out fishing, shooting guns, riding 4-wheelers, going to a live-music venue, visiting grandkids, or....shooting pool myself.
Maniac (too many other things better to do)
I agree. With folks like BigTruck and others offering rotation (on a barbox, no less!) live streaming for free, the interest in paying for rotation matches is slim to none for me. But offer me some quality straight pool or one pocket, and I'll open the wallet easily for a $40 package for 3 days of streaming.

Here ya go. Something for everyone. Ironically....the 2 guys you see in the background, SVB and Brandon Shuff, are practicing bar table 8 ball!
The $50 90 day pass will get you the One Pocket tournament included and 33% of the action match.

Now you're talkin', Ray! That's the kind of stuff that I am happy to support. You know my feelings about rotation-on-a-barbox.

I am a sporadic purchaser of PPV's and watcher of free stream. I often have other things I'd prefer to do - like play pool, entertain, cook, or get laid. When I have nothing better to do, I hook up my laptop to the bigscreen, cook or grill a nice dinner, pour a freshie, and enjoy.
But since I've watched so many live matches, some fade into the woodwork and I am no longer motivated to watch just any match. Some matchups flip my switch and I prioritize them.
My most memorable matches of recent which I am grateful to have watched include TAR's Efren vs SVB one hole, the Decider match, BigFoot, and Lou vs JB.
I voted $30 for 3 days.

i liked the yearly deal for $120, but that does not appear to be an option anymore.
I voted $30 also and like you, I'm starting to lose interest unless it's a match up I've never seen and want to, or 2 of the very top in their countries.
i've taken some local polls on this. and of the <10% Leaguers who actually can name 3 "pros" (including the owners), their response is:
1) who? - i'm busy playing
2) once you've seen them all play, then you've seen it all.
having said that, i pick & choose, while it wains. $10/day (or $30/match), i think is fair. i'll pay for Earl - just to see if he goes ballistic. BigFoot was great. OMGWTF was fun. Lou v JB was "ön the edge of our seats".
but at some point, it's wrote. we've "been there, done that, in person". since Mosconi, i've lost most of my faith.

In reality I have no time to watch a three day event so I won't purchase. A single day or single match is ok as long is it is short. I prefer a high a quality match that isn't very long.
The year deal was nice but I can't commit to a full year right now. I will probably bring back a 6 month deal though.
Thanks Steve.

$0 .... I only pay to watch matches in person.
cool, I look forward to it, I do like like the new options though, daily, weekend, 3 months, etc, but would like to have an annual or bi-annual option. It's always nice to have options !
I'm not that interested in streaming. Crappy ADSL is one reason, but more importantly, life gets in the way, and I just won't be able to get my money's worth.
I've downloaded several TAR matches though, and prefer that delivery method. That way I can not only pick & choose, but can re-watch whenever I want.
Paying for streaming video is throwing money at pretty much nothing.

If I have the time, I pay just to help pool, but with three kids, work, and a shopaholic wife, time is limited.

Wait ... is the one hole on a bar table?
