In fact the iPad mirroring works perfectly until you open MLB At Bat, and then the screen goes blank. So this makes me think that MLB is blocking any video-out from their app.

MLB Apps are $15 per device. Takes away the meaning of free. I have IPod, IPad, IPhone. That’s $45 for Apps. This month is supposedly free for Apple Tv owners. Can’t get in. I was thinking of subscribing this year. Had Direct tv extra innings last year. The Nickle and dime approach to these apps has turned me off.

My understanding was that MLB disabled the mirroring while their app is running… but I’d be very excited if mirroring worked.

After the success of March Madness on Demand iOS app, I’m hoping more live sports are streamed through apps. Offering one month free on MLB is a good start.

As long as the team you are interested in is not a local team or plays a local team and thus subject to blackout restrictions, you are golden. I can’t use MLB.TV or At Bat to watch any Braves games because I live in Atlanta. Sucks. I’d be willing to pay MLB to see all the Braves games. I won’t give money to cable and the local station is only good for about 1/4th-1/3rd of the games. Times like this I wish I was a Cubs fan. At least WGN is still their predominate broadcaster, even the pre-season games.
