I'm not a big Olympics watcher but I did watch some basketball this morning and some diving this afternoon. There's just not enough excitement in it for me.

This is the first time my daughter has wanted to watch the olympics and we record everything we can and fast forward to the good stuff. We get five digital channels, 1 basketball only, 1 soccer, 2 varied programming and then the normal HD NBC broadcast. Best coverage of the games ever. I watch all the volleyball, some swimming and some gymnastics.

Pretty lame for NBC.com to require a separate install and a bunch of Microsoft files to view video online.

I thought women's road race was going to be super cool, but then I realized they weren't going to be driving rally cars.
I bet Michael Bay uses GBPVR because it's awesome:

I'm watching lots - but skipping lots - Loving having the PVR and now in High Def its amazing to watch - I record everything and then watch it later and skip the bollox. I'm watching the Rowing, Gymnastics, Diving, Swimming - That Phelps is a freak - Made the 4x100 Medley look like a walk in the park and its not one of his stronger events - If he can keep his stamina through all his events he just might do it!

Can't really expect an accurate EPG from TV1 as with live coverage a lot doesn't go to schedule - better to record the lot and skip through otherwise the event you really want will get delayed and you'd miss it anyway!

I find it all rather dull - I'll watch a few minutes while waiting for another show to start/advert break

LOL - Now that would make it interesting!
