All can be streamed nowadays. When all paperless transactions are in effect, I believe internet will be the most reliable source of information. At the moment many offices still depend on paper in their business activities.
The problem in Indonesia is some internet connections are of low quality. Telkomsel can not be relied on in some parts of Indonesia. What do you think.?

Telkomsel flash signal is strong in certain areas only. My home happens to be the area where the signal reception is of low qualilty. Too bad. Aha signal is a lot stronger. I'm going to switch to that one, I think.

I don't like internet streaming because they tend to lag and it's slow. I prefer live matches or it's better if i can be at the stadium absorbing the live atmosphere and tension. Football isn't just about the players, team, goals, controversies, but also passion, fans and rivalry among clubs. What mentioned above are usually missing from live matches and without them, football isn't complete. To me, internet is of no help at all.

It's true indeed.
Even though in my case, online streaming seems still a 'luxurious' thing, since my internet connection, even though it's called broadband, still have limited speed and quota. Very sad :(
But yes, I can get a lot of soccer news from the net. So i can still follow the news about my favourite teams.

I use internet to keep up with what's going on around the world. I don't get much chance to watch TV, so I read the news from the internet. It's better anyways, I can choose to read only what interest me instead of having to watch whatever TV programs offer.

You're absolutely right! However, this is applicable in countries with well developed infrastructure and cheap internet access cost. I'm from West Africa where the infrastructure is yet to be world-class and having access to the internet is more of a privilege than a right. The cost of interne access here is still prohibitive and only the rich can afford to watch a live match online.

In India we get only five matches from EPL and 2 matches from Serie A and a couple of matches from La Liga generally each weekend. So I usually also look at the internet to see if there is any interesting match that is ongoing during that time. Also for the Cup competitions for which we do not get coverage, I follow it on the internet.
Cheers!

Hi adhyz: I am not a big fan of soccer. However I can tell you that I have felt the same way you do with my fan pages. I love some singers: Eric Saade from Sweden and Alexander Rybak from Norway who are not very well known in my country but I can feel connected with the fans using the forums and it's all thanks to the Internet. I am also a fan of a tv series called Animorphs and is very difficult to find people who know about it because is a tv series from the 90s and I have joined an internet community about the tv show and the books which is great.
