The broadcast signals could in principle be recorded onto some manner of magnetic tape, then read back off that tape and rebroadcast a few hours later at whichever time is ideal for different parts of the world.
- HelloMcFly 2y agoI know you're being a little cheeky, but if you think "tape delay" is some sort of solution to the problem I voiced then you're not really being serious. While NBC certainly improved their primetime experience this time around, it's not at all the same as actually watching the events live. This is doubly true since the results of many of those contests are widely publicized before their primetime airing.
