I believe the regional/sectionals stuff is going to the USFSA Fan Zone eventually:

I was charged but did not receive an email either. I went to their site that Mrs. P. provided up thread https://www.nbcsports.com/gold
and followed the instructions and everything has been working fine.

Yeah I was worried about that. My TV is a Samsung and about 3 years old.
Thanks! I tried logging on and it worked. Like everybody else, I am super excited to see that the quality of the video is so much better.
Hmmm... maybe someone in Australia is licensing the broadcast rights to it because figure skating is one of the few sports packages from NBCSportsGold that can work in some other countries for some events (Austria, Canada, Denmark, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Japan, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Spain, Sweden and the UK). Not having Australia seems like a strange omission.
Side note: oh man, I really want to see this distribution agreement and how those territories were picked.
Oh, I meant is it running Android or Roku or Apple Tv? The app's not compatible with Android TV but is available for Apple TV (Gen 4), Roku, Amazon Fire TV, Chromecast devices connected via HDMI.
BUT if you do have an Android TV would you mind sending an email to [email protected] asking them to develop a version for Android TV? If enough of us do so, then they'll probably come out with a version of the app for us.
Finally got my e-mail today. Seems odd you need to reset your password before you ever accessed the site in the first place!
Picture quality is surprisingly clear. I always dreaded when a skater wore a red costume which would always blur on IceNetwork! Some events seem incomplete..we'll see whether this is everything that NBC is going to post or if there is still more to come. I expected the same feeds as on IceNetwork - no commentary for most events. But, the events I sampled so far were just rebroadcasts of coverage from the Olympic Channel which I do not have with commentators at some broadcast center watching a live feed. I hope they cover all skaters competing, not just those they choose to air. Wonder what will happen when next season begins....
With Takahashi's "un"retirement this week, this is a perfect example of how I will miss having a centralized news location for figure skating.

Hadn't heard from NBC so I went and logged in and did the password reset. Turns out, even though I updated all my credit card info, IceNetwork apparently sent them the old information where my card had expired in March rather than the new expiration date I gave them when I updated in the Wallet. NBC tried to bill me twice and it didn't go through, and I never received any emails saying as much so I could fix the issue. I emailed NBC Support, but as of tonight I still haven't heard back from them. I'm hoping they'll still give me the discount but if not I guess I'll suck it up and pay the extra $10.

Same exact story here. Decided ten bucks wasn't worth the aggravation, but it sure reaffirmed my feelings about Ice Network's end

NBC won’t be airing any GP footage, will they? So either buy this new NBC Sports app thing or you’re out of the loop until someone posts videos on YouTube?

Yep me too. Old credit card info was on NBC. I updated my card number on NBC (after already doing it on IN) but did not buy the subscription yet. I emailed them about getting the discount and haven't heard back. I'm thinking maybe we should email USFS about this.

They will surely be airing the grand prix... figure skating ratings are down over the years(they've kind of held steady lately) but they still get better ratings than a lot of things put on in weekend afternoons. Figure skating ratings are comparable to EPL soccer matches. And they paid for the content.
