Part of the problem is that they have to optimise the stream so that it will play on smartphones and tablets. This results in a lower quality stream which doesn't look as good on larger display devices. They are working on improving this but there's going to be a quality compromise somewhere.
The commentary from the Wire game was really poor quality due to technical problems in the press box (interference of some sort). It was so bad that they decided to just leave it off the video. Having listened live I'd say that was the correct choice. Hopefully future commentaries will not be affected by the same technical problem and will be able to be added to the video as intended. There are also plans to add more features as you suggest.
Early days yet but still good value IMO.
Not complaining, especially for the price and that explains how were we spared the dulcet tones of DDD for this game.
There are plenty of ways to optimise the bit rate/stream quality based on real time connection statistics, hopefully they can gradually implement those.
It seems that take up of the service is quite high, at least from people on here, hopefully its surpassed their expectations.
