PLDT watchpad- how's your experience

I was utterly disappointed with PLDT watchpad not only was it hyped but it did not deliver what a decent show should during the height of the Pacquiao vs Cotto Firepower. It was heavily advertised over the leading national papers and in the television, even I promoted it here and here. It was buffering and crashing like crazy even early on the undercards.  If you had relied on the PLDT watchpad to watch the firepower and did have have a back up plan you would have ended with a stop and go show. Well, sometimes being free is not good after all.  If this is the future of paid IPTV of PLDT, i think they should think twice before charging their subscribers .  So how was you experience?
