Will you pay $$$ this year to watch the World Cup?

[triton]

commercial is charging minimum 2888 per screen. will our beer/kopi go up? after all it is one mth. more than twice the price to pay for a season of BPL.

[striker968]

Can we receive RTM1 n RTM2 via cable?

All life match cover by Malaysia channel I forget is it RTM 1 or 2, you guys think will both Teleco block the signal?

World Cup = $70++ SGD
Seeing the Telcos score an own goal= Priceless

[sportee]

Think bo bian, got to subscribe for it. Being a soccer fan... once every 4 years... think never mind. Just bet on one match and hopefully, watch for free liao... wahahahaha....

[Nooch]

Not payin. excorbitant amount. siao. rather watch in mac.

[icecream]

wah, SDM where you stay har?

[SDM]

Not paying coz gonna watch free via indonesia channel. my place here can get crystal clear images. Have been watching free euro and world cup for years...

[icecream]

Not paying too. Rather watch it at a pub with lots of other ppl.

Interesting. Both telco have ask all the football fan to support them n help them out by signing up from them world cup telecast package. Y not they help us out by giving the telecast for free? After all they didn't even wanna reveal how much they use to buy the rights but setting the price 3 times higher than 4 years ago. Nonsense.

[wolfeyes1974]

i'll pay for it....i think 1 accurate bet on the correct team will take back the sub fee... world cup is no fun when you dun bet...

[Foxbat]

boycott so that telcos will learn their lessons and stop treating us like suckers

[exxondus]

No point paying for this stuff lah.

Lots of venue will be showing free of charge. Besides, the money as you guys pointed out can be used for better usage.

There will be websites broadcasting/relaying live too.

i think i saw ST having a road show at IMM today. think package was 70+ or something.

consperm I wont be signing up.

+1 for NOT signing up. IDA, SH & ST screwed up, and consumers are paying for their mistakes. Come July, we have to sign up with both SH + ST just to watch sports coz some channels are with ST and some remained at SH. Plus having to pay for 2 separate setup boxes coz SH + ST wont share one

[soulmama]

I am not signing up this year purely out of protest.

If they keep believing that we are slaves to football, they'll always be charging us the earth. I would prefer they disclose how much they paid for the rights so we can assess how much they are profiteering. They are now having to penalise the viewer because they didn't have enough time to get enough sponsors on board to absorb some of their costs.

Just wait for the 2014 world cup. I bet it'll be more than $100 to subscribe.

I WILL NOT sign up for the package as well, would rather save my hard earn peanuts for rainy days ahead!
