It depends on where you are from...
You’ve probably heard by now that the BBC will stream all of its World Cup matches live on the Internet. This is a huge development considering they are providing this service is for free and how much it is going to screw employers. The only drawback is that the online streams are only available to those who live in the UK. I’ve asked my fantastic tech geek friends if there is a way around this for those who live elsewhere in the world. They say it is very hard to do but that undoubtedly some people will figure out a way. If you happen to know of a way to circumvent this, drop me a line. I promise not to reveal your name to the authorities.
In the United States, a limited number of people will also be able to watch World Cup matches on ESPN360. Again, this is a free service but it is only available to people who subscribe to high speed Internet service providers Adelphia Communications Corp., Bend Broadband, Charter Communications Inc., Grande Communications, Mediacom Communications, Mid-Hudson Cablevision, Susquehanna Communications, US Cable, and Verizon Communications Inc., among others. Might want to give your cable provider a buzz to see if you can sign up to listen to ESPN’s excruciating announcers online.
In Brazil, all 64 matches will be streamed live through the Globo web portal. This is available only to online viewers in Brazil and does require a subscription fee between 7.90 reals (US$3.43; 2,69€) to 14.90 reals (US$6.40; 5,02€) for the entire tournament, depending on your connection speed.
For the rest of us, we can always hope that the Chinese pirates come through to broadcast the games. There is also the official FIFA website, which will post video highlights of each match an hour after the final whistle.
