Will you pay $$$ this year to watch the World Cup?

I am not signing up this year purely out of protest.
If they keep believing that we are slaves to football, they'll always be charging us the earth. I would prefer they disclose how much they paid for the rights so we can assess how much they are profiteering. They are now having to penalise the viewer because they didn't have enough time to get enough sponsors on board to absorb some of their costs.
Just wait for the 2014 world cup. I bet it'll be more than $100 to subscribe.

+1 for NOT signing up. IDA, SH & ST screwed up, and consumers are paying for their mistakes. Come July, we have to sign up with both SH + ST just to watch sports coz some channels are with ST and some remained at SH. Plus having to pay for 2 separate setup boxes coz SH + ST wont share one

No point paying for this stuff lah.
Lots of venue will be showing free of charge. Besides, the money as you guys pointed out can be used for better usage.
There will be websites broadcasting/relaying live too.Comment

Interesting. Both telco have ask all the football fan to support them n help them out by signing up from them world cup telecast package. Y not they help us out by giving the telecast for free? After all they didn't even wanna reveal how much they use to buy the rights but setting the price 3 times higher than 4 years ago. Nonsense.Comment
