2008 Beijing Olympics Online - How to Watch the Olympics on the Web (Illegally)
Written by on August 7th, 2008 in Latest News.
NBC might not want you to watch the Beijing 2008 Olympics on the web, but this is a celebration of China, and what would your Olympics schedule be like without a little copyright violation? Oooh, a low blow, yes I know… But this is the nation famous for manufacturing fake purses and even counterfeit cars.
If that’s not reason enough, many Americans are upset that NBC’s coverage will exclude some of the best parts of the Olympics. In total, NBC’s Olympics schedule will stream 2200 hours of tv… but much of that will be full of TV ads. Plus there’s the whole time zone difference.
Accordingly, Americans will miss the best of the 2008 Beijing Olympics. Too bad…
