1KTV is $4.95/mo.:
1KTV-5 delivers world and national news from AP and Reuters, movie reviews from Variety, entertainment, comedy from the Comedy Connection, horoscopes, video game reviews and more in full video 24/7.
versus
SprintTV is $9.95/mo.:
Get clips of news, sports, and more - when YOU want to watch. With top channels like NBC Mobile, FOX Sports, and The Weather Channel, there's always something good on Sprint TV. A MobiTV Service.
since there is similar content offered, is there a reason to go w/the more expensive one (SprintTV)?
That would depend on your pocketbook, if you feel it is worth it either way? *looks at 3 inch RCA pocket TV with TFT screen* LOL!

I "upgraded" to the multimedia package so I have sprint and mobitv. I like mobi better just becuse is not some clip. over the weekend while sprint is doing the upgrades the clips dont get updated so you have the same one that you had on friday. If you ask me I would go with mobi or 1ktv. :eyebrow:
I say get neither. Pop a 40 and find a recliner; it's time for Sports Center on the big screen baby.

mobitvs frame rate is very good. i'd believe it looks like 15 frames per second. definitely not 5.

Of course that's always the preferred method. But it isn't always an available method. ESPN would definitely have to be part of any package for me to really consider it. :)

I had 1ktv for free for 15 days and it sucked.

i tried mobitv about 6 months ago then unsubscribed b/c my 1/2 hr per day use of cnbc during my commute into work was constantly interrupted by the periodic vibration...also the fps was pretty crappy and the rather frequent breakups and lag was not cool. Let me try this svc again - I hope the svc has improved.

Aside from the initial download, is the monthly fee of MobiTV covered in the Premium Pack's $10 download credit?

Yes. Any download is, subscription or not...

ive tried both sprint tv and mobitv on my 7400, and i have to say i like sprint tv a little better. the main reason is the framerate. on my phone, mobitv ran at about 4-5 frames per second. it rarely got close to being 10 or 15 like advertised. but sprint tv, although its only clips, runs very smooth on my phone

blah, i'd go with neither. we have it on our plan for free because of a mix up on sprint's part, but i've seen they wifey use it on her a900 for the first few days, she says she hates squinting. oh well.
