I haven't heard anything about Amazon partnering with Diamond for a long time, that deal must be dead.

I’m fine with Bally’s if they actually fix their app

Ballys is terrible. All it takes is watching a broadcast on literally any other channel to realize Ballys is standard def. It's trash.

Best quality broadcast is on Apple. Still no one doing sports in 4k though

Amazon games are in HDR but not 4k. I haven't seen anything yet about 4k going forward.

Idk if they’ve fixed their app, but it’s been better during the brewers season. Either way i’m an out of market LP person.

On the app if you go on while the game is in progress do you have the option of starting from the beginning or live or is live the only option? Amazon and Apple give you the choice, which is great.

Ballys might not be in 4K but they do include Novak on the broadcast.

Ballys might be alright if you could watch all of the teams games that they have broadcast rights too

From what people were saying last year, even local games were unreliable.

Yeah I signed up for 3 months at half price on black friday. Their app is pretty terrible. The Bucks game usually appears when it is live and its the only thing that you can click on. Most times it wouldn’t show up until the game started (not that I was going to watch the pregame but I would’ve turned it on while doing other things and sat down at tip off). I tried to find previous games that I missed and gave up.

Every time a commercial break happened during last night's Brewer game the Bally's app crapped out on me.

Having to hit play again after the pregame is over is just anti user.

It's a **** app and not even available on a huge chunk of smart TVs.

So does this mean we can finally ditch the garbage Bally's app and stream on Prime?
