Anyone know of a website to watch the SA World Cup with HD streaming? I was really hoping for a PS3 app like the MLB one that is offered, but nothing. I don't mind paying for it. I just can't seem to find a website that doesn't look like a scam.

Cheers.

This blog has some potentially good links:

I haven't tried any of the links, but there seem to be some good options for you there.

You can watch them all in HD from here

http://sports.news.naver.com/wc2010/dateSchedule.nhn

You need to use internet explorer and install a few things but it's not that hard to work out, I've been using the Korean HD with a stream from England of commentary, the streams have been pretty much identical for pictures and commentary.

Happy watching!!

If you go to Naver, there's a link on the main page. You have to use IE and install some Naver TV app or something, but it's pretty easy.

There is no "other stream". SBS has sole broadcasting rights to the world cup for Korea. Naver isn't going to put non-SBS streams on their site. I checked out those other links, only one had the ESPN stream but it was pretty crappy quality.

OK cheers for that. We watch the games at work through the naver app.

What I meant was, travelnguy mentioned that he watches the games on SBS on tv, but for the English commentary he listens to a specific P2P broadcast on his computer...so I'd like to know which P2P broadcast is actually in sync with the SBS broadcast?
