I wouldn't think it would that much different. It's just a slightly different problem with a slightly different solution.

  I'm not sure what the state of Bittorrent Live is, and I'm sure 10 years from now we'll scoff and say 'what a trivial problem', but right now it doesn't seem feasible.

    I'm willing to bet the problem can be solved today rather easily with tools we have right now. Live streaming is not an unknown concept. You just need access to a video source that you can then output in a way that allows other people access to it. But I'm willing to bet that a good reason for low piracy for sports is because not enough people really care to pirate sports broadcasts in the first place.

      But if ESPN is unbundled and charges $30 a household, would more people care?
      • talmand 13y ago
        Oh they would care for sure. They would stop watching sports on ESPN. I could even see local teams seeing their ticket sales increasing. That's the rally cry! Support your local sports, stop watching ESPN! Would $30 a month ESPN cause an increase in sports broadcast piracy? I seriously doubt it. Do people around the world really care what happens in sports from the other side of the globe that they are not involved with in some way? Do baseball fans in New York really care how that football team in Texas is doing?
