Would you like the NFL on your Apple TV?

I would want it too. However, since DirecTV has exclusive rights to the NFL package, Apple will need to set up an agreement with DirecTV as Sony did with the playstation. And the cost is closer to $400.

What I understood is that DirecTV is required to get the NFL online by 2012? Is that still the case?

And yes, I think you are right that Apple, DirecTV and the NFL would all need to come to an agreement. Certainly, thats not going to make it any easier.

$400? Well, I suppose there are some who'd pay that. Personally, I'd be closer to $100-200.. But, we'll just have to wait and see what we're told to pay. lol.

They did get it online by 2012. You can stream it on the playstation. I bet the next device is the ROKU.

Give me NCAA with immediate replay of the game should I miss the live showing and my cable would be gone.

Yeah ! I want it now !

I live in Spain and i have purchased Game pass. I have to stream it to the TV via AirPlay.

Works fine, it will be better if it is native.

If they did it, I would like it.

But frankly, I am a DirecTV customer and have the Sunday Ticket and am rather happy with it being on my TV.

Of course, many dont have DirecTV so this would help them

I voted "Yes, please" only because "****, yeah!" wasn't an option.

How much does the NFL streaming cost outside the us? Could be a good price approximation.

unless your a football nut and want to watch every single team for fantasy reason the $400 NFL package isn't worth it especially if you like a good team. In Boston we get all the packers, giants, jets and Patroits games every week for free on local tv channels. I understand if you like the bangels or the 49s it might be needed.

As for it costing $100-200 bucks. Man I'd love that but it's not going to happen to get past the cable companies you will need to pay a premium. I hate Comcast and only have it because of HBO. If HBO let me pay them $50 a month instead of $20 a month and not have comcast I'd be super happy because $50 a month is a lot less than $100 a month for 798 channels I do not watch or need.

I would definitely like to see it on Apple TV. I would need to know that it had similar PVR capabilities...the ability to join a game in progress from the beginning and skip through commercials, some huddles, and halftime like you can do with a Directv PVR or even watch it later that day.

I know the PS3 has it now, but I don't really trust Sony to get through a season without issues. If Apple had it, I would strongly consider dropping Directv....since NFL is the main reason I still have satellite.

I am not involved in fantasy leagues and I like the Cowboys (which they usually show locally). However, I like to watch certain players around the league, so I get my money's worth out of it. A ticket to one Cowboys game (with decent seats) can cost near or more than a season of the Sunday Ticket.

I would love it if I could get Sunday Ticket on my Apple TV. My wife is a huge Bears fan (unfortunately). I would subscribe if it was available!

$200 is my absolute maximum.

I was hoping to see it happen this year but I guess it isn't.

That would be awesome! We already have Nhl, Nba, Mlb, we only need Nfl and apple tv will be one of the most entertaining streaming box! All that+jailbreaking= PRICELESS!!

Well then you're probably not going to get it for a while. DirecTV's price is $350 a season and the PS3 price is $340.

One thing not mentioned here, is that you can buy the To-Go (iPhone/iPad compatible) service direct from DirecTV, even if you're not a subscriber, for $350 but have to state that you're unable to get DirecTV (e.g., due to line-of-sight issues). I don't know if you have to prove that somehow.
