 |
|
I'm planning to have a very busy month starting June 9th, watching every single game if at all possible.
So, my questions are...
1- What channel(s) will the games be shown on?
and
2_Will they be showing all the group games? And subsequent rounds (as more than likely Korea will be flying home after there three games)? Please say it is so!!!!! (not korea going out)  |

Can't say for sure, but the Euro 2004 games were shared around KBS and MBC. For that tournament, they showed every game, and with them being on late at night, I can't see why they won't show them all. If worse comes to worse and you find out this isn't the case, you can PM me and I'll send you a link to a live streaming site that will definately allow you to watch what you want, albeit with Chinese commentary.  |

go to streamtvnow.com and pay like four bucks (i paid 11 u.s. for three months, can pay for one month if you want) and get LIVE streaming.... phenomenal streaming, the best quality i've ever had, i can actually watch fast paced hockey: i've seen the NHL playoffs, memorial cup junior hockey, world hockey championships (i like hockey), but there are channel feeds for soccer too, along with any other live sports event. they have a request page for asking about specific games, can see the world cup game YOU want. no on-demand, only live, so you can't replay it. but the live feed is quality.
i'm super happy with the service (took me an hour to figure out how to download the "easytodownload" application program - but i'm not tech savvy, after that, clear sailing!) |

I wasn't aware streamtvnow still showed football. It was the great white saviour of many footie fans here in Kokoland for a while, but then they stopped showing the Prem and most of the channels went for the NA audience.
That aside, if they have overcome the buffering problems that plagued the site originally, they usually have a pretty good broadcast standard and I would recommend it as a backup. |
