I'd just use realplayer if it didn't have the damn timeout. I don't really have any need to record anything, so BBReloader is a bit of overkill. The BBScreens feature was useful at times however.

I've been using RealTV even tho I get BBReloader also because of the deals they offer with Real Player. But RealTV for me is a lot easier and does everything I need. I'm just not really feeling it this year. Not as excited as I usually am before the season starts. Maybe things will change once we see the HGs profiles. I'll hold off on any players right now until I find my BB groove.

I'm getting the feeds for the first time in 2 years. I was on dial up forever and when Real stopped dial up support i was screwed. So i only could watch BB After Dark and a few clips i would download. It took long enough but i finally got high speed. Hurray for me. But i can't afford both the feeds and BB after dark. I'm thinking getting the feeds is the better way to go. You can still see most of what goes on, on BB after dark on the feeds right? If i record the feeds when i'm sleeping i wonder how much space the video files take up?

RGW, Yay for you on getting high speed. I'll never forget the day I was able to get it. Dial up really really bites and I feel for anyone who has no choice. I don't think I could ever go back lol. I've had the feeds for several years and really enjoy them. I've never had BB after dark though, so can't help ya there. I've never had good luck trying to record the feeds. The sound is fine, but the picture keeps freezing up. Not sure if it's my computer or just me lol. I also use BBreloader. It's nice not to have the time outs that you get on real and it's free so well worth it. Hope this helps. And again, congrats!!!

Rgw825, a big consideration as to whether to get the feeds or BBAD would be what time to you have/want to devote to watching? With live feeds, you can choose to watch any time of the day or night, and you (at least sometimes) have your choice of which feed to watch. With BBAD, you can only watch for three hours a night, and only the feed they choose to show. However, they don't tend to go to FOTH as often, of ever. I've never had BBAD myself, but I did get to see it a few times last summer when I was visiting my sister. Oh, and another consideration is how many TVs you have versus how many people want to watch something else at that time!

Luckily or unluckily i live alone and don't have to share Tv time or internet time with anybody. The feeds would be nice to watch when i get off work. I think i will get the feeds. Still wondering how much space it will take up to record the feeds while i'm sleeping. I have one VHS tape i saved from the infamous Natalie and Chelsia lap dance and pool party from BBAD.

The amount of space needed varies depending on how much you compress it and how well your computer does at compressing on the fly. Check out the new features on Realplayer. You probably wont need to record it as they have that flashback feature this year that will let you go back and watch any time and date you want. Of course while you do that you will be missing whatever is happening live at the moment. At least we'll have something else to watch while it's on FOTH. For recording overnight I'd imagine you would need multiple gigabytes per session.

Big Brother had media day yesterday ( i think). Allison Grodner did a radio interview. Did not reveal too much because the cast is not sequestered yet.She said the house is beautiful, modern and will be green(eco friendly). More will be revealed after they have sequestered the chosen cast. There is a link to the interview on "that other" site.

Spunky, when I read your post, I thought: I'm hoping for nothing new. Lets go back to OLD - 12 strangers, no twists, weeklong competitions, no interference from producers, etc.... Ahh..but that's just me... Can't wait for July 9th - instead of taking a full weeks vacation this year, I've arranged to take Fridays off through the summer. This way I can stay up all night after the live show. I'm sick, I tell ya....SICK!

That's not "sick" Rosem - that's economical!! You won't have to pay to travel, you won't be spending money on hotels, restaurants, etc. You'll be saving gas by not driving. AND you'll be entertained (we hope)! Sounds like a very SOUND decision for vacation planning.
