Doesn't appear to but I believe it does include Battle for Atlantis as it lists it on the schedule and the discounted rate for the month is only $12.50

Correct. And for those 2 days, November 20-22, you'll pay $30. The $12.50/mo. charge comes only with a 1-year subscription. There's a lesser charge for UConn students and faculty with e-mail addresses to prove eligibility.
Pretty sure all streaming sports providers DO NOT produce their content, rather they pick up the video feed from broadcast productions. Some streaming providers are of course also broadcast producers, like the ESPN stations. ESPN3 doesn't self produce most of its content but picks up other producers like the SEC network.I got Flosports yesterday and decided to test it out. Watched parts of several Big East games. Most were easy BE wins except Providence vs Yale. I found most very well done. The big exception was the Seton Hall game which was not watchable. Terrible video - looked like it was recorded on a 1900 flip card viewer. Too bad as I was interested to see their team. Biggest game for me was the DePaul game. Wow do they ever have a very good new Freshman (#24). She had over 20 points halfway through the 2nd quarter. #21 hit 3 straight 3s. (yes I was too lazy to go to their website and look up names

Not true.
actually I'll cancel tomorrow but the month subscription will work till expiration.
True. You can cancel anytime, and your subscription will expire at the end of your paid period.
I'm pretty sure you're right about the source of the video. I'm watching the Princeton/Villanova game now, and the same issues with the UConn/Fort Hays game are happening here as well; replays inserted over live action, zoom happy camera operator, baseline camera much too close, etc. That said, the video quality is excellent and the announcers seem to know about which they speak.
It is with great hesitancy that I have to spend any more time on this, but here goes: $12.50 is NOT a discount price having anything to do with a UConn e-mail address. Everyone gets that price who pays for a year's subscription. The "discount price" is the special offer for those who HAVE a UConn e-mail. Only students and faculty of the school get a "discount price."
You are correct that the $12.50 price has nothing to do with having a UConn email address. But it has everything to do with signing up through the UConn website. So, OK, count you out. Everyone else can take this or leave it.
DJB, thanks for being persistent. I assumed that to join FloSports you'd have to go to their website. What I wrote was based on my experience there. I had no idea that there was another way to approach a subscription, but, thanks to you, now I do. I followed you and have the same $12.50 one-month deal as you, which means I owe you $17.50 (plus tax?). Please find enclosed my check for $17.50.
You're very welcome. Glad to help. The key was the link through UConn.
Not correct, check the post above. If you sign in the Big East on Flohoops, it is $12.50 per month, not on annual basis. Check it out. Not bad $12.50 to watch 2 games.
Technically 4 games
There's also another tourney going on after the Bahamas with Stanford, Maryland and someone else. Games galore.
And, you can provide your own hamburgers, fully cooked and not still frozen in the middle, for less than $25. So a really good deal.
And home fries, slaw, beer, and beer, and ice cream, and beer. And a recliner. And a short crawl to bed. And maybe a bedtime beer.
And do it all again tomorrow. A complete healthy workout all around.
