[Husker] Alternative ways to see the Nebraska football games

[Jay Schlechte]

In looking at the alternative ways, I don't think video.BTN.com will have
live football games and quite likely won't even have replays available.
Where this could be really nice is for volleyball and baseball.  This is the
blurb I ran into on the intro page (
http://video.btn.com/allaccess/index-splash.html):

"Welcome to the Big Ten Digital Network Your online home for Big Ten
Conference video content and entertainment. The Big Ten Digital Network
offers fans the largest schedule of online streaming video for Big Ten
athletic events. Over 500 exclusive live streaming of *NON-TELEVISED* events
direct from *BTN.com* covering basketball, baseball, soccer, volleyball and
more! PLUS, subscribers gain access to additional live and on-demand video
content from every Big Ten school."
Which is really unfortunate and annoying from my perspective.  I have no
desire to pay the necessary amounts of money for a satellite or cable
TV service just to see a few football games.  Good old fashioned radio over
the internet will have to do.  :)
GBR,

Jay
