Did they get rid of Mitch Booth? That would be a big disappointment. He was far, far superior to Jobson in the last few series they have done together.

I'm sure it's an NBC thing. Todd Harris has done a lot of commentary for other sports. For us, it's not as good, but maybe for the rest of the world it's okay? He's a pro, so I'm sure he'll do his homework.

I enjoyed listening to Mitch.

I dont think you will have access to the live Youtube feed in the US (or any other country which bought the TV rights).

I hope that's not the case - I don't think that "Comcast SportsNet California" is a nationally distributed station in the US.

No Youtube on Sunday in the US, doesnt seem to bad really.

http://www.americascup.com/en/Teams...2012/06-June/How-to-watch-ACWS--Newport/
"Coverage is also available live and on-demand worldwide on YouTube.com/AmericasCup, subject to territorial broadcast agreements. In the United States, the broadcast agreement with NBC means there will be no live coverage on Sunday, July 1, on YouTube. Replays, highlights and on-demand are unaffected, however, and will be available on YouTube in the USA throughout all four days of the AC World Series in Newport."

there are plenty of sites available to watch almost any sport event (i.e atdhe1.net).

they can be a bit tricky to navigate (tons of pop ups) and i would NEVER download anything from them, but i plan to look there for the races if i can't find them elsewhere.

Or you can just spoof the server into thinking your computer is in some country that doesn't have rights.

if i read correctly, NBC sports was going to broadcast live Sunday event only. I hope that means that we could still see the youtube feed the other days?

Probably know in about two hours... I think the match racing starts around 11:00 EST?
