Does anyone know where I could watch the US take on Switzerland today online? I'm at work and wont get to see most of the game. Thanks

I'm pretty sure you can stream it through NBC.com, if not there should be a billion links on myp2p.com

This is only useful if you have cable, satellite or IPTV and it's through a provider that is in 'partnership' with NBC Olympics. Use. less.

There are some links up at myP2P, but no telling yet if they'll work or be of decent quality. Apparently NBC is going to be aggressively blocking streams of things they can't be bothered to show on NBC, let alone live, to make sure as few people as possible can see it.

That stinks.

Although that article you linked sounds like you cant watch anything online other than curling and hockey. at least I can watch hockey.

a mere 400 hours of video will be shown live online. And should you be a enthusiast of something other than curling or hockey, you will not feel terribly lucky. Nothing other than curling and hockey will be shown live online. Nothing.

I was hoping to watch some biathlon

Good article. I feel like NBC is setting fire to every bridge they cross these days.

Does anybody know if the game is on at 1200 PST or 1200 EST? I'm at school and everything I've looked at online says local time so I don't know which local time they are referring to.

It starts 3 pm Eastern / Noon Pacific

About a hunnert years ago there used to be a standard for broadcasting mandating that all stations/channels/networks must "broadcast in the public interest". Honestly, that actually used to mean something. With ESPN/ABC/Disney, Comcast/NBC/Versus, USA network, ad nauseum, it means absolute jacks***. And the people in charge (i.e., the FCC) frankly and simply do.not.give.a.damn.

We can only hope that Comcast/NBC pushes it so far that the FCC will finally get off their monopoly-loving asses and get involved. It has to be only a matter of time until Comcast demands that cable and satellite companies pay exorbitant fees to carry the NBC network. Why else did all that happen (Comcast+NBC+Versus)?

Not sure if my cable meets the requirements for me to watch a live feed, but I'm not seeing anything immediately that says I'm ineligible. Only thing I am seeing is that the game hasn't started yet, and I can get a TXT alert sent when it does start.

If I can watch it from my PC:

Is there anyone out there that has experience with setting up a stream that could walk me through it in 10 minutes?

(I'm 1337 ;) , so if you know what you're doing, we should be able to get it going pretty quick.)

I've got upstream to spare as well... but if everyone jumps on and it makes it so I can't work, I'll have to shut it down.
