Which of the following would you choose:

1) watching content whenever you want, however you want, without wasting your time with advertisements. Oh and you can also participate in a forum discussion including high quality replays, and can link to other replays, etc, etc

Or

2) being subject to ESPNs scheduling, spending your time watching advertisements, and having to deal with an additional middleman (the channel provider)

It's a no brainer that other than the actual game itself, ESPN has nothing to offer that subreddits and other forums can't. And you don't waste your life with commercials.
