Re: watch premiership on pc ??

Sky currently have a service whereby subscribers who have Sports and multiroom can watch live Premier League football on their computer; they can also set-up additional users who can also watch live footie, so if the OP knows someone with Sky Sports + multiroom he could, quite legitimately get them to set-up himself as an additional user.

a very low broadband speed is enough! 1MB is even fine!

i disagree, the streams can be around 200 - 600 Kbps (probably around ITV's bitrate lol) , which when not stretched onto a massive living room TV are quite watchable in my opinion, especially when there is no other option to watch LIVE games if you cant make it.

p.s. lately there has been a few 800Kbps streams knocking about, if your naughty and download xvid\avi moviez they will be in the 600 - 1000Kbps region.
