This kinda sidesteps the economic issues being raised by the people in this thread being made about going to live games, but I'm much happier staying home these days than seeing a game live.
HD broadcasts, the amount of cameras/angles, and various other broadcast perks have me staying home more than trying to get out to the ballpark when the situation arises. I've caught myself in hotel rooms in other cities choosing to catch the broadcast rather than buying a ticket and spending a few hours at the ballpark.
I don't even go to as many minor league games as I used to and they're still extremely affordable. Part of me would wonder if the carnival-like MLB parks is the turn-off, but it doesn't seem to be.
I'm really thankful for the sheer amount of broadcast baseball you can easily obtain these days. I watched the Cubs in Japan at 6am today and I'm on my 2nd spring training game since I got home in the early afternoon today.
