It's well worth the $30 for Versus. The audio and video quality is excellent, and scales to the big screen quite nicely. The coverage is as complete as possible, with no ads or silly interruptions.

If you miss the live coverage, you can easily watch the archive in the evening at your leisure.

It's only $1.43 per stage, which seems cheap to me. I easily get $1.43 worth of enjoyment out of it.
