For this season the MLB is not allowing any radio stations to broadcast baseball games online. They have to do it through MLB.com, which I will not link, who forces you to pay to listen. This follows in the new theme of charging people to do just about anything on the internet. Now when a place like Outpost.com I don't mind so much that they started charging for shipping because it was generous to offer free overnight shipping. But when I listen to the baseball game online, still through WGN on mlb.com, I am listening to advertisements throughout the game and WGN is still paying the MLB to be able to broadcast the game. So why do I need to pay the MLB again? I think this is absurd.
