hmmm....never tried that essen.
even you tube sometimes not streaming well.

to watch football, i guess the best is TV. Anyway, if i couldn't get the satellite service..I'm going to The Spot and see. BUT....it's all morning match which I prefer home-based-watching. Smile

I have always supported Italy but this time, they look weak....and no scandal to galvanize them. So probably, no chance of a repeat of their win in 2006

Spain, Czech Republic and Holland are my favourites too. It could be Spain's year...

I don't like France but they look strong man....scary

CCTV5 seems 'there' to broadcast Euro2008. YES!!
although the commentator is not energetic and not fully football-spirited...we still have the chance to watch matches at home. yehaaa....don't think i'll get a satellite. hahhaha

Great...no need to pay again to install pirated satellite which have no guarantee of it working....

Yeah, Spain may do well but I hope the coach calls up Raul...

Hi people,

The serviced apartment tells me that their satellite feed is "legal".
Is there really legal satellite TV in Shanghai?

Personally... I'm not bothered as long as I get to watch what I want but good to know anyways. Smile
