Starhub and Singtel are the biggest rorts here. Apparently they're owned by the same company as well which makes the whole thing puzzling tstl. Sports packages are a rort so we went with Starhub as it has the better entertainment and NBA TV on it. Shame I now have to resort to streaming the Premiership games. Never had it so good as with Foxtel in Australia.

Temasek Holdings is a major shareholder for both the companies, which in turn is owned by the government.

Where do you stay ooi?

Holland Grove. Near Dover MRT.

Pretty close to Holland V so a pretty good place to stay. Getting to work must suck though, assuming you work in the CBD.

Nah I work at Expo, which is worse but I love the area I live in so it balances out.

Gonna keep streaming until some releases a fair cricket-only or at least sport only package. Why the do I need 50 channels of crap they force you to buy with it?

With the NBN coming in I'm hoping for more paid content online like NBA League pass, HBO etc. If there was a viable option for legal streaming of stuff I want I'd jump on it but TV networks are so behind the times and television contracts so important for sports, streaming and torrenting are the way most people go.

If the under 11s don't chase down this 90 odd this morning they'll be running laps until sunset.
