    It is incredible how feeds have changed from being a 'pre-recorded' to an effective live stream online - now I can see value in having a PC in my living room if I can pick up content from any archive as well as play live content such as this

    Hmm. I'm dubious about this kind of hands-on research.

    Perhaps you had to watch the whole of Federer match to ensure that it works?

    It wasn't exactly long right?


    Maybe we should have that central point VPN put in place for people to login to specific things then we can filter bandwidth....


    I feel for the large corporates - they thought FaceBook and MySpace was bad....

    shame they cant get the cricket coverage sorted properly.

    trying to watch the scorecard for the last ODI, a number of times the feed went blank, had badly distorted sound, or changed to a wimbledon match

    personally i say bring back the realplayer feed, but i "suppose" this is progress
