    PBA sponsorship money is why 900Global and I dont' remember the other company, are not in the PBA this year. They didn't pay so they can't be used.

    It was 900global/amf, and ya... 6 figures isn't all that justifiable, unless your storm/Brunswick/hammer

    That brings up a good question. Is that amount each for Brunswick and DV8? Storm and Roto-Grip? For each of the gazillion Ebonite International companies? Or do they get off easy and just the parent company cuts a check?

    Good question, i bet they probably register the balls under the parent company in order to avoid this. (speculation)

    I just subscribed to XtraFrames and i am disappointed! It is like someone took their DVR and uploaded the last 8 years of ESPN INCLUDING COMMERCIALS to the website.

    Am i missing something? I was under the impression I would be able to watch QUALIFYING ROUNDS!

    They show qualifying rounds live. You can watch the live stuff in a couple weeks. Check the PBA schedule and they will have the qualifying days listed.

    I was thinking there where qualifying rounds EVERY WEEK. Was I wrong?

    Yes. They no longer have tournaments weekly they tape 4 or so tournaments in a week. What will be in ESPN tomorrow was actually taped 2 weeks ago.

    Still a disappointing purchase. Bad quality, and all. You cannot even take your credit card out, so just like microsoft I'll have to call ad have the charges "reversed" once they automatically ring it through next year. Really sad.

    I would love to subscribe to Xtra Frame, but it sounds like they need to improve the service a bit first. Making it playable on an iPad would be a good start. Ideally I would like them to get an Xtra Frame app on the Xbox 360 or PS3, as that is where I watch most of my online streaming content, but that seems like a pipe dream at this point.
