Well $55 dollars later I still haven’t been able to watch the PPV from Jamaica. I just had a bunch of people over to watch the PPV and nada. Why I didn’t see this coming is beyond me. My apologies to my friends who ventured across the city, only to watch an old episode of the A Team. I seriously hope they get their shit sorted out in the next day… I feel a rant coming on.
How about you guys did you get it to work? Any difficulties?
So I’m going to ask that you guys to keep the Jamaica fight results off the site for now. If your interested in the results you can find them over on the K-1 Fans Forum. I’m hoping their glitch gets worked soon.

Hey Nopstar, I had the same problem. The player keeps “connecting to the media” and does nothing.
They posted on the site that they are looking into it and will add 24 hours extra.
If and when I find out they fixed it, I’ll be sure to post again for anyone curious. I really hope its up by tonight (It’s June 22nd, 4:35 ish where I am, and I’ve been trying to watch since yesterday at 1pm).

Just a note that there were people who watched it streaming live. I think the problem has only affected those who tried to view it after the live viewing, such as myself and (I’m guessing) Nop.

They have everything but the 1st three fights up.
These are not the greatest quality, but watchable. Still, it’s a little disappointing not to be able to see it in better quality, since some of the action gets slightly choppy. But like I said, it’s still watchable.
If the stream doesn’t work by tmrw (which they said they have added on to compensate), then I’m going to call istreamyoustream and demand my refund. This really is a big disappointment.
Sidenote: I’ve only seen the last two fights so far, but they are definitely worth watching IMO.

I just logged on to that BS website that is youstreamistream.com and here’s the message that they have posted on their homepage “Thank you to all of our loyal viewers that have witnessed this historical event on live pay per view from Jamaica. We are pleased to announce that the fight will be available for on demand viewing from Friday-Sunday, June 27-29, 2008. There are no additional charges for those that paid for the fight.” Which basically means for a WHOLE FREAKIN’ WEEK those who paid but were not able to watch the event will have to relocate in some igloo in the north pole to make sure that nobody spoils the results for us.
What pisses me off even more is that by next week most of those fight will probably be on YOUTUBE.
This is a complete dissapointment.
Oh and Thaifan….they state on the website that there will be absolutely no refunds…but if u get lucky, please let us know.

I had issues finding the site… I don’t even remember how I got there but when I did I clicked on the box that said watch through Windows or something of that sort and I watched it. The quality of the video was crappy and if there was much action to the fight it would blur up.

Spydaman, yeah, you’re right. No refunds…
They should give send the paid viewers some sort of freebie…though they probably won’t.
