Cable cutting is growing ever more popular as the Internet has provided consumers with better and cheaper options than traditional cable. While people who have abandoned traditional cable have lots of great television viewing options, they may find themselves in a bind to watch wall-to-wall coverage of big events like the Olympics.
Cable companies and broadcasters are conspiring to keep the best coverage of big events like the Olympics behind paywalls to push consumers into signing up for their services. NBC has the broadcast rights to the Rio Olympics, which begin on August 5th. While you can pick up some of the games for free via antenna, for the best coverage the network will want you to sign up for a subscription service.
For folks in the U.S. who want to watch the Olympics, but who don’t want to subscribe to a pay service, there is another option. The BBC is broadcasting the event for free in Britain, and by finding ways to get around the company’s geo-blocking mechanisms, you can, too. Getting around geo-blockers can be a challenge, but if you have a tech-savvy friend, it can be done.
