Since I've paid my money, for better or worse, I will try to give a fairly unbiased weekly update on the quality of the BigPond/Telstra feed. You can decide if the $60 is worth it--and compare it to what is available on Setanta BB (which I also have).
Round 3:
Loaded the Bulldogs/Saints match at 5:30 PM EST--appx. 13 hrs after first bounce in Aus. After a 20 sec. buffering right after the bounce I watched the remainder of the entire match without incident.
Don't get excited. 
Consistency is everything. We'll see what the rest of the round brings.
This week's Setanta schedule looks abysmal. Nothing until Sun. @ 3:30 AM EST (Bris/Syd). If BigPond is on schedule that match (7:10 PM Aus-time, Sat.) should be available when I get up tomorrow morning.
Stay tuned.---And somebody tell me how to use all those other smileys above "Body"---'cause I ain't smart enough to figure it out.
