Prime Minister Koivu Posted September 12, 2007 Share Posted September 12, 2007 http://www.canada.com/montrealgazette/news...aa-7496f59b41f1 This is freaking awesome! RDS is going to broadcast the games on the net as well so people everywhere can see the games. :hlogo: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fanpuck33 Posted September 12, 2007 Share Posted September 12, 2007 Nice, and they're not even limiting it to Canadian IP addresses. Quick, I need to learn French! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Habitforming Posted September 12, 2007 Share Posted September 12, 2007 The net is great and all but I want it available on tv (as an option at least). I don't understand why I can get one french channel package, but not the other that has RDS? Sign my petition, it is for RDS Canada wide! http://www.ipetitions.com/petition/canadiensfansunite Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Habitforming Posted September 12, 2007 Share Posted September 12, 2007 is this going to be a free service? I can't see that...but right now (if your in the privilaged areas) it is a $2 monthly add on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you still live in Kingston, you can actually get RDS now...(at least that's what JMMR says) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lazy26 Posted September 12, 2007 Share Posted September 12, 2007 Thanks for the support. If you still live in Kingston, you can actually get RDS now...(at least that's what JMMR says) Not with your basic cable, unfortunately. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prime Minister Koivu Posted September 12, 2007 Author Share Posted September 12, 2007 yeah, I was talking about the online. This is interesting considering that centre ice is going online as well... I am not sure if there is a cost. I would bet it will simply be a lower quality version of the television feed (for free). If you have your computer hooked up to a HDTV with a decent graphics card it will upscale the image for you. Can't wait! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShortHanded Posted September 12, 2007 Share Posted September 12, 2007 (edited) LOVE this. When we finally go back to our basic cable, (or when someone else is using the tv's) it means I'll still be able to get the games :DD Edited September 12, 2007 by ShortHanded Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sakiqc Posted September 13, 2007 Share Posted September 13, 2007 Wow! Being able to watch every Habs game here in Philadelphia via rds.ca? and free???! Sounds too cool to be true. Bye bye hockey broadcast on internet radio! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMMR Posted September 13, 2007 Share Posted September 13, 2007 Not with your basic cable, unfortunately.

My grade 11 french isn't enough to understand it all, but I can follow the game and a lot of the commentary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
giovannicanella Posted September 14, 2007 Share Posted September 14, 2007 Hey guys I read somewhere that, rds was gonna show all the habs games free online? I might have misread or misunderstood (long day) can anyone confirm? Secondly google had a section where it would upload all the hockey games from all the nhl teams it would be a few games delay but you could always watch the games and it would all archived...I can not seem to find that anymore...even my old bookmark to it takes me to just simple google video...whats up? Thanks in advance guys for any info... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
