For the iOS faithful who enjoy NCAA basketball, as in previous years the NCAA division one men’s basketball tournament, otherwise known as March Madness will again be streamed online and of course to basketball fans that own the Apple iPad and iPhone; however unfortunately unlike previous year watching the Big Dance will cost the iOS faithful.
According to the guys over at MacRumors by way of AllThingsD, both Turner Sports and CBS will be broadcasting NCAA over 4 TV stations whilst if you wish to watch on your iPhone or Apple iPad it will cost you a one off fee of $3.99.
Apparently games shown on TBS, TNT, and TruTV are available to authenticated viewers via certain pay-tv providers whilst Mac users can watch all games broadcast by CBS for free by hitting up CBSSports.com.
Apparently the one off $3.99 fee is for all iOS devices so you wont have the hassle of authentication and covers the entire tournament, and when you hand over that $3.99 all 67 games will be streamed to your iOS device over 3G or WiFi.
Last year apparently Apple iPad users could watch March Madness for free, but this time round it’s going to cost you that 4-bucks, which to be honest if you are a big fan of March Madness isn’t that expensive considering you get to watch the entire tournament.
March Madness kicks off on the 13th of next month and apparently the NCAA March Madness iOS apps will go live in the App Store as of the 7th of March or you can hit up the NCAA website and register for notification once the iPhone and Apple iPad apps are live.
