There is usually some coverage on some channel or another, but its always crap. Short clips of bands, and the presenters telling you how great everything is, but very little live performance. Maybe different this year but I doubt it.

There's the live streaming as mentioned by fantomas. They try, but previously the sound has been seriously out of sync with the video. Maybe they can get it right this year. I hope so.

Also soon after, video starts appearing on torrent sites for download, and of course Youtube. Sometimes good, sometimes crap, sometime professional and sometime audience camcorder or even mobile phone clips.

Oh, that's dissapointing. I'll have to make sure and check out IOW too. Not sure I'm going to be in to watch all teh live feeds, was hoping to record stuff to watch at my leisure. I notice the website has an 'on demand' section though so maybe that's my answer.

Thanks guys!
