    Should go with a VPN next time and go with cbc, 9now, bbc, etc. Been what I’ve been doing for past Olympics enjoying no commercials and direct feeds.

      I didn’t think that NBC would have made it worse than last time. They finally had something that worked, but I guess shooting themselves in the foot was better.

        I wasn’t surprised since it’s felt like every Olympics has had people complaining about NBC. If it wasn’t sports avaliable to watch it would be commentating and focus on sob stories people would tire of.

          I would have been happy if they had just added all the direct feeds to their system last time. It worked good enough and you could actually navigate it. This year they made a big deal about how they would have the international source feeds too, without the NBC commentary. If they’d just done that then there wouldn’t have been much to complain about. Instead this forces Peacock shit made it nearly impossible to watch what you actually wanted, when you wanted despite all the advertising about rewatching streams and events.
