I actually thought of you when I watched the highlights of the Heat/Atlanta game, Monday morning. I love that App. Nice work.
Works pretty slick too over wi-fi. Haven’t tried it over 3G yet.
Have you considered writing a post-mortem? I’m sure it would be really interesting.
Do you think they’ll ever stream live NBA games (that they are broadcasting) via this app? That, would be awesome.
I love everything about thescore.
It’s a little slow over 3G. TheScore is going to (or already has) changed the encoding rate a little lower. iPhone 3.0 OS has support for adaptive encoding rates so hopefully our video provider will be able to provide that as well.
As for whole games, I don’t see that any time soon. TheScore actually has exclusive broadcast rights to English Premiership in Canada so hopefully we’ll have the same highlights on theScore.com on the iPhone app. Unfortunately, those clips will only be available in Canada.
