Both bad and good news...

'The originally planned live coverage has to be cancelled due to issues with U.S. TV station(money?). However, there will be taped broadcast, detailed schedule will be published upon available.

In Canada, CBC is broadcasting 4 continents the weekend after this one.

This stinks! Why should CCTV5 not be able to broadcast this live because of an American TV station?

[Tonichelle]

because ESPN is running the cameras and since they aren't showing the competition until NEXT (?) weekend they don't want any competition, and that includes online broadcasts.

Fat lot of use that is! Skating has a worldwide audience, and here in Europe we are ready to watch live!

Is there a way to watch the Euro TV on internet?

[La Rhumba]

No, I believe Eurosport does not have live picture streaming, but does have live audio commentary. However there are rumours that ES will broadcast some 4CCs coverage for the first time since 2003! YAY! Fingers crossed it doesn't fall through.

Some info from a friend in Amsterdam, as nothing on British Eurosport:

According to our teletekst the CC4 will be on
Eurosport Thursday 18.45 and Saturday 19.00, I suppose
this is GMT

Oh no. But thanks just the same La Rhumba.
