Video-on-demand games in Australia

[DINGb@T]

All I'm after is video-on-demand for every game of the World Cup that I can watch from here in Aus. I won't be able to stay up late to watch every single game so I want to be able to catch them at the earliest possible moment the next day, probably at work during my lunch break. Beginning to end, pause it when I need to so I can start watching again when work is finished etc. That's all I want.

Is anyone actually offering this? Telstra did it for NRL games but I can't find the video streaming site I watched the last WC at. And Seven's site says nothing about streaming the games. This is one of the few times I will be willing to pay money to make sure I get to watch something online but I've already looked and can't find anyone who looks like they're willing to take my money.

It can't be that hard can it? Or am I just missing the website or something?

i know a place where you can download torrents from

 

[Paullyboy]

I assume you're being a smart arse, but even still, is there even anyone that would do torrents of the RLWC? I doubt it.

 

[DINGb@T]

That's the thing - I'm quite happy to pay honest to goodness money. But no one seems to want it.

Is there an app or something?

Your set-top box or digital tv doesn't have a usb input?

That's good to know. I work early most days, so was hoping to be able to watch games on demand later.

Yep, it depends on the region that their server thinks you're in, not where you actually are of course.

The site i get them from puts up most nrl games and esl. They made a thread last night "all the rlwc torrents go here".

For those of you with a PS3. I am using my PS3 with Play TV to record the tournament on a timer. I get 7Mate on the PS3.

Most games will take up about 3GB.Should fit the whole tournament easy.

This is what I'm doing as well. I haven't used my PlayTV much since I got foxtel IQ, but this is the perfect time to start using it again.
