Who ISN'T Keeping the Network After the Free Trial Ends?

[KAMALARAMBO: BOOMSHAKALAKA!!!]

And what's your reasoning behind it?

I'm pretty addicted to wrestling, but my finances have been so tight lately. True, it's only $10 a month, but still. I'm tempted to pay for it, but I already have so much wrestling to watch as it is. Really going back and forth on this one at the moment.

If you already have enough to watch, it sounds like you might want to wait on the network a bit then. That way you can savor what you have and mow through it. Just hold off of buying new stuff for a bit and then get the network.

That's kind of why I'm waiting to even activate the free trial.

I'm getting rid of it after the trial. I haven't been able to watch anything yet, except the shows rating. After that, it stalls loading the video. Dunno what the deal is, and they wont return any emails to help resolve the issue. So, bye bye Network.

I was all for keeping it/paying for it until the stream crashed during NXT Arrival last night. Now I'm admittedly very nervous about paying for something that won't work properly. If that happened during WrestleMania, I think I speak for a lot of people when I say I would get pretty damn mad.

Maybe it's just my greed talking, but I think they'd be smart to extend the free trial for another week. The content is great, but their actual service hasn't exactly been up to par. They can issue all of the statements they want, but for me personally, it doesn't curb my fear of this junk happening on a consistent basis once I started paying for it.

Media Error: Video not available.

That's my network experience summed up in one sentence since monday. I'm pretty sure I'm not going to pay for the right to see those words.

I'm probably going to wait until it's a little bit more stable. Depending on whether I can hold off that long, I might wait for its official UK release.

I've done everything I can to improve the freezing/lagging videos on my desktop and laptop. If they don't get the XBox situation fixed soon I'll have to drop the Network. Plenty of great content, but I'm not watching a lagging WrestleMania let alone a second-tier PPV that just so happens to come with it, and I'm not buying a whole different system I don't otherwise need just for the WWE Network.

I already cancelled it. Raw was what pushed me to doing that, but all the same, since it still isn't working on the 360 I still haven't been able to watch it outside of screwing around on my grandma's cellphone one day. I might wind up renewing it since I should have a lot of money coming next week anyway but they're going to need to get it working on the 360 before I consider doing so.

[JTG Fan]

If it were just the library I might consider it, but when you factor in getting new live WWE PPVs, the $10 price tag is a steal.

[Vice honcho room temperature]

Well ignoring the fact that I'm trying to not give the WWE my money the VOD inregards to the regular TV shows such as old Raws, Superstars, Nitros, Saturday Nights and ECW TV is too lacking.

I get why. Its good business. Hold stuff back and all the PPVs is alot of content but in 6 months or so I'll check back and see what they've added if anything

[tigermaskxxxvii]

Part of me wants to get rid of the network and wait until my own finances also loosen up a bit, and to let the WWE Network get a better handle on the technical issues (although the VOD is getting better with the whole freezing up thing). Oddly enough, it's probably NXT that's gonna sell me on keeping the network, which is weird seeing as how the VOD was the tentpole that got me to sign up for the free trial.

I've got the Network on a 6 month probation period. As long as the live stream doesn't have issues and they don't jack the price up I'll keep it for a while. I don't really care about the VOD stuff, I've seen most of it and it's just a cool time waster from time to time more than anything.

[YAKMAN is ICHIBAN]

If you buy 3 PPVS a year, I think you'd be foolish to not just get the Network (assuming the technical issues are sorted out and the price doesn't jump)

I usually pay for at least Wrestlemania and the Royal Rumble. Adding just a little more for the Network is a no brainer.

[jagilki]

It requires at least a 1.15 MBps internet connection.

I live in the boonies. The fastest I can currently get is 500k. I pay $30 bucks a month for it.

While talking to my ISP about this, they say I CAN get their wireless internet which would be 1.5MBps, however, it would then cost $60/month + I would have to rent their antenna for another $20/month.

Just not worth it at the moment.

[Raskovnik]

Yeah, if I did get it it would be for future PPVs and whatever else they're streaming, because I don't see myself watching the archive stuff all that often. I really want WWECW episodes on there.

[psychokiller]

I'm likely going to keep it. $10 a month is really nothing at all if you have a job & money isn't really tight. It's been working about 90% of the time for me the past 2 days, so they mainly fixed all the issues I was having the first 2-3 days. Hopefully they fix it soon on the Xbox 360 though so I can watch the Network somewhere other than in my computer room.

[DoubleDare]

I'm keeping it, I wish the xbox360 would work but its ok if not, cause I'll probably be getting a ps4 around march 21st when infamous comes out.

[The Legendary Ring Troll {BLM}]

I'm cancelling it. Not that I don't love it, watching old wrestling PPVs is great and I can't wait for more of a backlog of the TV shows, but I vowed not to give WWE my money anymore or to watch Raw/Smackdown. I've stuck to the latter so far, and I fully plan to stick to the former until things change. Once, IF, things start looking better, I'll sign up.

[Deleted]

Canceled it due to their billing. Free my ass

[fw91]

im keeping only for the cost effectiveness of ppvs.
