Can't help but notice that MLB.tv has been getting much slower to
connect
over the last few weeks and has been much more balky with its streaming
video. As in, the stream will disconnect in the middle of action...
not
good if you're watching your team try to complete a bottom-of-the-ninth
comeback win...

Yep. The last couple of days the sudden stops have become annoyingly
frequent.

Too bad, up until the last few weeks, problems were almost zero. And MLB
hooked me good this year... I get the shakes without my fix. Condensed
games, EVERY game (even the non-televised ones) available, blackout
circumvention with the proper knowledge, classic games... now they've
introduced a queue during their peak hours... "Waiting 12 seconds to
process your request"... I'm getting a little nervous that MLB is going
to find a way to let a beautiful thing get screwed up...

OK, I finally called MLB.tv tech support and "Monica" told me that the
"server is completely down" (I haven't been able to connect for the last 30
minutes plus) and they're working on the problem. That's all kinds of
"doesn't make sense" but at least they're acknowledging that the system is
FUBAR and apparently are trying to fix it.
