Hey thanks for the info and especially the screenshot! It will help me make an educated decision about whether the service is worth it.

I’m not sure about the update times. Right now it says the MNF game will be available shortly, but I don’t know what the guarantee is. It also appears they’ve changed the player. Right now, I’m getting a much lower quality feed, which is pretty disappointing.

Here is the 4 games at once view:

Note, there is a control to turn off and on the final score.

Thanks for the reply. That’s good to know! One final question about the Game Rewind. Their website says that the day’s games aren’t available until midnight (eastern time), but I have seen elsewhere stated that they are available 1-3 hours after the game has ended.

I’m not sure if you tried watching a game on the same day, but do you know which is the more accurate figure?

P.S. Would you happen to have a screenshot of the “4 games at once” layout?

It’s a good point. If you just jump directly to the NFL rewind site, you don’t see the scores. I confess, I have little desire to watch when I know my team loses in overtime…

I have a question about the NFL Game Rewind. I wouldn’t mind waiting until midnight to see the day’s games. *BUT*, is the score revealed to you in the links to access the game? That would ruin it for me.

Very apropos after last night’s posting. From the EFF mailing list

* Into the DTV Era, With No Broadcast Flag Mandate
Entertainment industries like to argue that they “need” DRM
to make works available. And policymakers have eagerly
adopted this argument. But when the bluff is called, it
turns out that the DRM wasn’t so necessary after all.
