The mlb gameday audio this year is terrible. It's a crying shame that it sounds that bad. You might try mlb.tv for better sounding audio, and fewer drop-outs. You do have to pay for it though, and some of the games are blacked out as well, but the quality is much, and I mean much better than the lousy game day audio crap. If you use real player as your default, some of the games are even in stereo. Don't waste your time with gameday audio. I've complained to the technical support staff of mlb, but they are clueless, so you won't get any help out of them. . ----- Original Message ----- From: "Charles Adkins" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "PC audio discussion list.
