I think this tweet sums up how people in the USA feel about your 12
channels of content, lol I know if I paid $1.4b for the rights I'd be
showing non stop coverage instead of CNBC showing some crap Americans
stupidest explosion videos or whatever it is they have on at the moment.

How is CNBC and CNBC NOT SHOWING #OLYMPICS
<http://twitter.com/#!/search/%23OLYMPICS>  at the moment (showing
regular crap programming) 
http://twitter.com/LiveOlympicChat/status/229343433532260353 

 

 

Cheers,

Dean

We have 12 live feeds here (24 if you include the HD simulcasts)

Shame I'm not really interested in the bloody olympics!

I did enjoy a half hour of the women's beach volleyball earlier though
:)

Maybe...because he's in Australia and the bbc channels aren't available
from there?
