Best i can tell, the only way you can stream live Olympics coverage is if you already subscribe to cable, satellite or IPTV provider. [here] Hello NBC. We woulda paid you for premium.
Also, it took me forever to figure out why the button labeled BOSS on the video player brought up a full screen of a windows desktop with an open empty spreadsheet.
"Streaming and recorded coverage will also by provided by NBC to AT&T, Sprint, and Verizon. AT&T customers will be able to watch coverage through the CV application installed on most AT&T phones under the Sports category. Sprint cellular customers can view coverage through Sprint TV under the Entertainment > TV > SprintTV > NBC Sports channel. Verizon users can watch coverage via the V CAST application under Pictures & Video > V CAST Videos > Sports > NBC Sports" I have found the NBC channel, i think, but i don't appear to have any audio. >_<
Meh.
