Discovery better make sure there''ll be plenty of online live streams available like the Dutch NOS always had :spank:

I read an article about Discovery having sold the free-to-air tv rights to NOS for both the 2018 winter games and the 2020 summer games in the Netherlands...

NOS should have about 10 hours-a-day of live broadcasting for 2018 and 14 hours-a-day for 2020, with discovery reserving for themselves 2 sports as exclusive rights (Ice Hockey being 1 of the 2 for 2018)...

I hope that sky will buy some hours of the OG..

I think that's impossible...discovery group would keep for themselves all pay-tv rights for sure...the only open competition is for the free to air part...and I only hope that RAI won't be involved in any case (then, if they keep also those rights for their free channels or sell them to other networks, it's the same...just get rid of that fuckin' public shit of our darling, mamma rai (you already know what are they going to do next august with the rio games, so you can understand why I'm writing those lines)...

Well, i have discovered a law in Italy how OG and other events must boardcast for free (or in a channel whit 80℅ of potential watcher). Here the law in italian: http://www.agcm.it/component/domino/download/41256297003874BD/7D452D93E7E59F97C12567B000379320.html?a=p7340.pdf

Well, just trying to help.

 

Here's a question. If you were broadcaster, and had exclusive rights, what and how would you broadcast it if you were in charge?

 

For me, I would just emulate the BBC's 2012 coverage.

All events can be watched live and on demand on telly or on internet, with the BBC Olympic Channels and online there are graphics showing stats and on-demand you can press a button for moments, e.g. a goal in football. Hopefully it will be as good.

Also, how will SBS transmit to North Korea? Presumably they will sell it to KCNA?

I suppose they mean live broadcasting on online streams, which would be pretty bad given that in London there were 10-12 streams online almost all day...

No way NOS will actually show 10 hours of live sports on tv, they prefer to spend most of the time showing replays, always behind some minutes behind and talking about the Dutch athletes so they are too late for the live things again.

    • "Out of stadium" why not just call it road events? 
    • GSOC Kioti National | Saint Johns, Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada    Men 1.  Team Mouat 2.  Team Jacobs 3.  Team McEwen 3.  Team Whyte   Team Mouat have now won the first 3 slams to start the season, and keep their hope for a Grand Slam alive. They’d be the first team to ever achieve that feat.    Women 1.  Team Homan 2.  Team Hasselborg 3.  Team Kim 3.  Team Einarson   Team Homan were 5-2 down entering the 6th end and somehow managed to find a way to win. Now 40-2 on the season, including 5 titles, and are 107-9 in their last 116 games. Incredible consistency.    Full Results
    • I would say the same with Serbia   May the best team win 
    • Yes, there are chances for us to make it, but also there are chances for you to beat us by more than 6 goalsOur team is very unpredictable at the moment.
    • My guess is that Montenegro will beat Czech Republic and for the our match it will be about goal difference. I read that if Serbia beat Romania by 6 goals then we will pass. So there are still chances that you can make it. 
    • Difficult for us without Neagu But we had some good moments against Montenegro last night. We lost due to many errors in defence, we have to improve that. I don't know what to expect against Serbia, I would say 55% we will go home after group stage, unfortunatly. About the other matches, except Croatia vs Faroe Islands which ended with a draw, not to many surprises.
    • Congrats to Max for another win. Easy race for him   The battle for constructor championship is still running What a disgrace for the directors of the race to not send the safety car on track due to that mirror which caused a puncture to Sainz and Hamilton. By the way, looking of the direction of Bottas when he hit that mirror we can be suspicious that he did that intentionally. Ok, he had to give space to the driver who laped him, but his direction is too strange. Pitty such race was ruined by this incident.
    • World Athletics announce the World Athletes of the Year.  Big awards go to Letsile Tebogo and to Sifan Hassan.    Women’s World Athlete of the Year: Sifan Hassan (NED) Men’s World Athlete of the Year: Letsile Tebogo (BOT) Women’s track: Sydney McLaughlin-Levrone (USA) Women’s field: Yaroslava Mahuchikh (UKR) Women’s out of stadium: Sifan Hassan (NED) Men’s track: Letsile Tebogo (BOT) Men’s field: Mondo Duplantis (SWE) Men’s out of stadium: Tamirat Tola (ETH) Women’s Rising Star: Sembo Almayew (ETH) Men’s Rising Star: Mattia Furlani (ITA)       Seems a bit strange to me - OK, there is a case for Tebogo over Duplantis who can basically win every year, but for me Manuchikh beating an almost 30 year old WR beats winning Olympic Marathon Gold.    Hassan and Tebogo named World Athletes of the Year | World Athletics    
    • Former snooker World Champion Terry Griffiths passed away at the age of 77.
    • Doesn't matter if Shiffrin is there or not, it's still a last minute defeat for Wendy Holdener.
