Bees World

Have you got it?

Is it reliable?

Is it worth the money?

All thoughts welcome

Try the similar threads function for a broader range of opinions. I used to love it but time zones are a ****er nowadays.
 

Bees World

Have you got it?

Is it worth getting? Yes, it covers all matches except friendlies.

Is it reliable? Yes, you get the odd ground where the sound is distorted.

Is it worth the money? Yes, £19.99 for the match commentary only.

All thoughts welcome
I cannot get to all the matches, this way I can follow the team. You need Broadband, otherwise you will lose the broadcast from time to time if you are on pay as you go.

Does anyone else have this problem that i get now and again!

Sometimes when there are interviews i only get the sound and not the picture how do i fix this!

Very good to listern to the games as i cannot get to many games!

Sounds like your viewing the high quality version when your connection isn't good enough. Windows Media Player will sacrifice pictures for audio if thats the case. Try the lower quality stream

Is it reliable? Mostly, a few probs here and there but then you can always listen to the opposing teams commentary if ours is not working for matchday commentary!

Is it worth the money? Yes

All thoughts welcome
I am renewing again today as won't be going to as many matches this year and well worth it, espcecially as we have a couple of really good commentators :sorted:

You are so right, and it all costs less than £1 a week. Another bonus is if you subscribe to BeesWorld EXTRA, you get full access to all the other clubs.
Value for money? 99% I'd say

This is doubly true with a side order of fact fried in the drippings of correctness.

I used to love listening to games that had no relevance to the bees but that had some sort of impact on mates of mine, it's a quality service no doubt.

You can listen to the commentary from all clubs without Extra. Extra gives you the highlights of all the other clubs, but Virgin will have that for free on their site from next year.

Stick to the basic match live package.

Your quite right Hobbsey, although Extra gives you that little bit extra if you excuse the pun:rolleyes: For example i had a butchers at Hereford United's website and watched Alan Connells goals.

You'll be able to see plenty of them this season up close and personnal.

Got it on Friday so I can listen to Radio Bristol with one ear on Tuesday night and Beesworld with the other

Is it possible to share log in names and passwords so everyone can tune in ? .. I used to get it free with NTL a couple of seasons ago and my uncle in America used my log in to listen to the match commentry

It might be easier to mug one of the bucket shakers ;)

I imagine it is possible.

It is also possible for me to get into your house and nick your TV, both of them are theft :wave:
 

Bees World

its more like sharing than theft ?

Not really, Premium TV charge in the region of £30 a year to provide commentary, and the club gets a chunk of that.

If someone who was considering paying can "share" a log-in it's less money for Premium TV and the club and I suspect a breach of the terms and conditions, which means someone is stealing the copyright.

It's the same law that prevents you running a cable and "sharing" your neighbours SKY feed and the same one that prevents "sharing" of music and film files over the web.

And, as someone who gives of my time free of charge to provide commentary, it pisses me right off :wave:
 

Bees World

WEB is right. It's also periodically checked to see if logins are being used from a suspicious range of ip addresses.
 

Bees World

everytime i try to log in it says their have been errors made with ur submission, which means ive forgotten my password. So i therefore click on 'forgot your password' option only for nothing to happen. Is their any way around this????
 

Bees World

ye, its great, ive got bees world but i want to upgrade to world extra
 

Bees World

re the barnet highlights - the cameraman somehow missed our second penalty? what the ****ing hell was he looking at at the time? piss poor .

ye but he got the foul for the penalty, but forgot there was something after it
 

Bees World

Is it possible to pay by cash, postal order or cheque. If not, do you know why?

Apparently it was a technical problem as there were no highlights of the last 20 minutes either. I reckon they ran out of tape or something. Not really good enough.
 

Bees World

Cannot believe the mess of the highlights.
Missed by cameraman, pathetic.:nono: :sad:
 

Bees World

i believe the camera work is operated by a Brentford staff member. i know matt davis sometimes does it and another guy who works at BFC. so it isn't the bees world (premium tv) operators who run it. maybe you guys can offer your services.............................................
 

Bees World

beesworld is crap i was with then last season which was good but now its crap
carnt see nothing or do anything and im a paid member!
when i try to listen to live commentry it cheaks for licence but says it has exceeded the limit so i emailed the customer servises and nothing so i sent another email today and im getting PISSED of with then now!
 

Bees World

My subscription for BeesWorld runs out in a few days and I want to subscribe to Bees World Extra but every time Itry it tells me I'm buying World, not Extra.

How can I sort this out?
 

Bees World

Another goal missed out on the highlights, maybe the cameraman was as fed up as the rest of us and left early.
 

Bees World

I know this is an old thread. I'm on the free 30 day trial at the moment, thought I'd check out the Barnet highlights as there seemed to be a lot of chances for the fake bees to equalise towards the end of the game.
Not sure why they use the plural version of the word "highlights" because all they had was the goal, then shown again from the same angle in slow motion.

Where's the rest? I watched the Rotherham highlights which showed 4/5 chances from the 0-0 draw. Not a good incentive to actually purchase a subscription if that's all you get in that section.

Don't get the wrong, the commentary is awesome and it's probably worth just that, just a bit disappointing is all.

This question has been done before. The reason is (to the best of my recollection) is that the "highlights" are not under the control of BFC, they are put together by the local TV company
 

Bees World

Thanks. I kinda assumed it wasn't BFC themselves that did it, but thought there might be more highlights. Seems like a bit of a rush job. Bet the championship highlights are lengthy!
