What outlets do you guys use to watch soccer games? As I have gotten more and more into the sport, I find that the coverage on Fox Soccer Channel just isn't enough. Every once in a while we get a champions league game on a Tuesday on ESPN2, but are there any good ways to watch live games on-line? I just heard about footy-live.com, but I am a little leary, as it is only about 7 or 8 dollars for a year's subscription to watch all kinds of foreign channels with live games. Anyone heard of that site, or others? Sorry if this is in the wrong place, but I figured the right people would find it here.
Thanks,
T

Well I can tell you in Canada that we get three English Premier League games every Saturday on regular cable then, if you subscribe to Fox Sports World Canada (or Fox Soccer Channel, I cant remember what it's called now) you can watch a sunday game and monday game if there is one. We also get, on another channel, ESPN's Champions League games (whatever they decide to show). They will do one live on each Tuesday and Wednesday and then usually at least one delayed each day.
There are more channels available here with certain cable companies like GolTV but you'd have to pay extra.
Other than that I just follow livescore websites, team websites, and news websites like bbc sport.
I read something that said we're pretty luck here to be able to see that many games, especially three premier league games on Saturday, because even in England they aren't televised, and if they are they are PPV.

USA:
Your options are:
Fox Sports - They offer some premier games. Generally replays
Fox Soccer Channel - You get one or two EPL games a week, 1 Italian Serie A and generally a German Bundesliga and French Ligue match.
Fox also has a spanish channel that offers Brasilian and Argentinian games along with Copa Sudamerica and Copa Libertadores matches.
Here in NY we have a few local spanish channels that gives us Mexican matches. Also there is an Italian channel I can't remember what it is that gives us one Italian Serie A match.
