I'm not liking this! nytimes.com March 27, 2001 Baseball Fans to Be Charged for Internet Broadcasts By CHRIS GAITHER Major League Baseball said yesterday that it would begin charging fans to listen to audio broadcasts of its games over the Internet, a stark illustration of how content owners are trying to find business models that work in the online medium. The subscription plan, which will cost users $9.95 for a full season of baseball games, signals an end to the ability of fans to get radio feeds of baseball games free on the Web. Baseball fans, and sports fans in general, have used the Internet to listen to play-by-play of their hometown teams in areas outside of the local radio station's range, sometimes while sitting at their PC's at work.
