I watched about 80% of the show yesterday on the Flosports Firestick/FireTV app... It was flawless. I very very highly recommend getting a firestick and using the app. If I had any issue with the app, it's the user experience, but that's a very minor inconvenience

I'm gonna say outlier... Bluecoats were s coring near 8.8-9.0 in book and tech...Then they get an 8.65, 2 nights later. With BD and SCV in the same show 2 days ago and tonight. I'm saying it's an inaccurate judge... But I wasn't there so I can't give an educated opinion.

the former cloud eng in me wants to ask how their infrastructure works from the source to Amazon Web Services to the home. I suspect an wide number of issue are at the show site because AWS is pretty #### solid

doing a quick search, and you can look at engineering.flosports.tv, they are built on AWS (Amazon Web Services) CDN and hosting stack, so this is streaming on cloud. THe only think i can think of (and i am a former cloud eng) is that the network these devices are using are not capable of delivering HD (720 or 1080) streaming. i.e. not gigabit ethernet from the device to the ISP to AWS. they may have to compress hard to allow for smoother playback due to infrastructure issues. big reason why we dont get the Katy show, Broken Arrow, Denton, et. al. This is the best we are going to get, it's better than nothing, which is what we could have. Flo is getting better, as they grow and their infrastructure investment increases. At the end of the day, you are limited as the infrastructure you are plugging into...like putting 87 octane in a Lambo

i used the fire TV app last week...i really liked it. i think using a web browser does enter more issues with so many plugins asking for memory and bandwidth. however, i will reserve praise until after the season (watching finals at home this year after a 2+week France vacation...and all the $$$ spent on the St Louis Blues successful cup run).

...and keep this in mind, FloSports has signed deals with 2 MLS team (DC UNited and FC Cincinnati) to broadcast live matches and other content...and is rumoured to be in talks with the United Soccer League (USSF D2/3/4) to move from ESPN+ to FloSports. Flo will be getting bigger, however DCI and Flo still have to comply with the DMCA and Tresona. We should just be happy we have a platform to view these intermediate shows and the major shows. If i had one fixable complaint, hire better camera people or stick to high cam until the arena shows.

and remember, Flo is getting bigger...they have 2 MLS contracts and could have an even bigger contract soon. This is the best platform we can get for the cost, even with dvr...the pirating would be out of control, and then what?

One thing I've noticed in this stretch since 2013... They are shows the kids look like they are having fun performing... And that's crucial -

Yep, but it will still never top the fan network stream from Buffalo. That was special. Lol😂 I was at that show...I think I still have the picture of the set up from the both posted from the DrumScorps app -

That venue was booty...last second change that could handle the crowd. McKendree isnt big enough...Americas Center was booked, despite the sports commission offering big bucks to move the booked group. I dislike Belleville West (i am an East grad). When the MLS stadium is built, i have a feeling this will be there...on natural grass. -

Scheduling and parking area conflict...I guarantee you the Regional Convention and Visitors bureau wants this at the dome next year...& In 21... And possibly at our new MLS stadium in 22 and beyond... Like they have in Chester. -

Is there a stronger word than wow for Boston? That is a top 3 show. No weaknesses anywhere.
