BALTIMORE ORIOLES SHOULD BE ON LOCAL!!!

So, there is no app for MASN. No live streaming service such as YouTube TV, Hulu Live or Sling TV. And there isn’t even an option to stream MASN outside of your home if you do subscribe to a cable or satellite service that carries MASN.

Why is this, you ask? Nearly every other MLB team is available via streaming in some form or another.

MASN’s owners, the Peter Angelos family, which also owns the Orioles, has steadfastly refused to sell the channel to the live streaming services, or make it available online outside the home if you subscribe to a participating cable or satellite service.

MASN has also balked at suggestions that it sell the channel directly to consumers for a monthly fee, as HBO, Showtime and several other channels now do online.

MASN has been in a dispute with the Nationals for several years now over how much the DC-based team should get in licensing fees. The Angelos family says the Orioles should get the lion’s share of the channel’s profits because it did not try to block the Montreal Expos from moving to Washington in 2004, and becoming the Nationals. Until then, the Orioles had the entire Washington-Baltimore market to themselves.

This should not be a battle between teams for having power in the Baltimore Market!! This should be for the fans to be able to enjoy their team as they do the Baltimore Ravens on local channels in Maryland. They could even charge a premium of like $6.99 a month for a subscription that I am sure Orioles fans would pay for  

Lets get Peter Angelo’s family to work on this for the fans!!! Sign the petition today!!!!
