Hi
Longtime lurker....
I'm about to dump TV cable - rarely watch it, price is about to
increase. But I will lose my ability to watch F1 live.

I came across this site:

http://www.watchlivef1.com/

Does anyone here use it or know anything about it?
For 10 dollars, it's not a huge risk, but any info appreciated.
Thanks.

Paul
Spam, yes?

BTW, does any one know if the BBC are going to stream the races, qually,
etc?

AC


No, not spam.

I'm really looking for info.

Paul

Fair enough.

I wouldn't touch it with a barge pole unless I was incredibly desperate.
Firstly I'd use the BBC stream. If that fails because you are out side of
the UK, use a proxy to get round it. Failing that, I'd start poking around
here : http://www.myp2p.eu/index.php?part=home and get it for free.

I would not pay a thing to anybody, lets alone a site that is possibly
illegal. The FIA are nazi's over rights and I would want to see that it was
100% legit before giving them my credit card details. On the face of it, it
looks like a pay version of the link above, or the services it lists like
TVUPlayer, etc.

If there was a super duper online streaming service fully sanctioned by the
FIA or Bernie's merry band of pirates, and with lots of groovy extra's I
might part with cash.

I'm in Canada, and have had varied results using a proxy with the BBC.
The Speed broadcasts are sometimes available via TVU, but that is also
inconsistent.

But thanks for your replies, I'll keep on looking.
