Has anyone seen the new Sling TV package that's available ? It has a different channel lineup than the original, but has multi streaming.

Our house loves baseball, and we already subscribe to MLB.TV, but our Royals are in blackout status. But with beta option for Sling, we can watch live-not that we don't enjoy the radio broadcasts.

I'm excited to give it a whirl. Anyone else jazzed ??

Whoa! We love sling, and multi-streaming would be awesome!

Ugh, just looked at the channel lineup. We can't give up ESPN. Paying for both seems silly especially when you would get duplicate channel. I wish they would add the multi-stream to their current lineup. Or make me pay a little extra for it.

Since it's beta status, maybe if it goes well, they'll make a combination package of sorts?

Baseball is big in our house, and there aren't usually a ton of games on ESPN. Sunday night baseball and College World Series. We usually have dinner Sunday nights at my parents or with my parents at Old Chicago, so that works out. And since CWS is local, just head down to the ball field.

It's not perfect, but it's better than it was.
