Last year it was for free.

Plus the premium videos too, once the broadcast is over.

OK, that must be very good.
But i was wondering how many people here have actually signed in to it? No one has so far even admitted to doing so.

I have not, instead opted to view it on Chess24 or stream it from the main site for free after the event is over. So far I don't feel as if I have missed anything special. Hoping the excitement will pick up.

Have to agree, the games have been standard chess openings without much novelty. Quite the opposite of the WCC 1972 with Fischer's well prepared and interesting novelties

Cordially,

Sean

Last time and the time before i watched it on chess24 live. Is this possible this time too?

btw, to watch it afterwards will never happen, because then there is never a good excuse to find 7 hours for that purpose. But when it's live, the question of whether or not to find an excuse hardly even comes up!

The short answer is 'Yes'.
