This is pretty much the exact problem we're having here in Australia. We get 3 hours of coverage a day at 9am, which is summarised further and shown at 9.30pm. They only show us events that Australians appear in and barely show the rest. I think they showed about 5 minutes total of that USA vs CA hockey match in our prime time.
We have a 'pay tv' network which has 4 channels dedicated to Olympic coverage, and it costs $65 extra for the privilege.

- AndrewS 17y agoIn addition to that, I get tired of the channel 9 commentators pretending that every moment of whatever they're watching is a dramatic historic event. Can't we just enjoy it for what it is without all the crap? It also seems like half of the broadcast is just montages and irrelevant interviews like Grant Hackett interviewing Michael Phelps.
- sailormoon 17y agoYeah that "USA-Plus" label applies to us a bit too. Didn't we win gold in something? You can count on seeing that happy event in slow-motion about 3000 times over the next week.
- zzygan 17y agoI'm one of the probable few that paid for the 4 channels. I did get in early and get it for $50, but thats almost irrelevant. I must say it's by far the best way to get it. Its the best coverage I've seen of the olympics here. Way better than Beijing. Every event is on live and then replayed at night. Very slick, good commentating, and not too much australian person who came 22nd hyperbole.
