OT: (As On topic as an OT gets) Streaming Sports sites mostly down - who is left?
Being in Europe, I can't watch the games unless I shell out some non existant money I need for things like food, and winter clothes for the upcoming Danish Autumn.
What streaming sites remain since myp2pforum and atdhe are both down for good?
ESPN360 seems expensive as hell (the price of a danish beer).
September 2nd, 2011 at 5:44 AM ^
I'm in Europe too and i have the same problem so i have searched a lot.
and also myp2p is now myp2p.bz!
Hope that helps. I have some more bookmarked at my computer at home. If none of this work I will give you more.
September 2nd, 2011 at 6:00 AM ^
Thanks for the heads-up on myp2p. They are always my go-to site, and I probably would have gone in panic mode on Saturday.
September 2nd, 2011 at 5:52 AM ^
The new kid on the block:
And atdhe is still alive and well:
September 2nd, 2011 at 9:56 AM ^
They seem to be the "poster child" for getting busted. Most of their channel streams say "off air," and their event list is pretty small. I miss having them as the go-to live feed.
November 12th, 2011 at 6:11 AM ^
I would like to add one more site here which is www.streaming4sports.com. It has very aesthetic user interface. you can watch Live NFL, NHL, BASKETBALL and many other games their.

Living on the Pacific....lost my Direct TV and Big Ten Network because my new home faces north and the dish needs to face southwest. I refuse to pay for Time Warner Cable, which has a monopoly on my city....and is the worst company ever to deal with...
So lately...ive watch streaming sports on atdhe.tv.....after the govt shut down the .com version and its been ok, seen the Lions games and MNF.......and im catching my favorite tv shows (Breaking Bad) on tv duck and I pay $ for Netflix streaming for movies. I hope that the Michigan games will be streamed somewhere...perhaps athde will have them.
The future of TV is streaming online.
September 2nd, 2011 at 8:58 AM ^
Yes, because I love watching grainy pictures on a 15 inch monitor as opposed to HD on my 42 inch tv.
I'm only half serious.
September 2nd, 2011 at 11:15 AM ^
September 2nd, 2011 at 6:24 AM ^
Looks like the first game vs. Western is streaming on ESPN3.com as well (free).
September 2nd, 2011 at 8:06 AM ^
espn3 is only for North America - those of us in Europe or elsewhere need to get it via espn player.
September 2nd, 2011 at 9:13 AM ^
you try to find a U.S. proxy i.p. address?
September 2nd, 2011 at 9:45 AM ^
I live in China and us a US proxy to get on Facebook, YouTube, etc, but US proxies only work occasionally for ESPN3 if the IP address you get happens to be one that uses an internet provider that offers ESPN3 (they give you a different IP each time you connect). In my experience it works roughly half the time.

£18 a month shouldn't be a problem for a Michigan grad (and I assume you are one if you're a Michigan fan and live in Denmark). When you're at the bar, ready to order that 11th beer on Friday night, tell yourself that you'll forego this one and spend it on ESPNPlayer instead.
It's worth it for the extra quality and to avoid the stress of getting kicked off the free streams at inopportune times.
September 2nd, 2011 at 9:34 AM ^
I am currently an apprentice at an animation studio that doesn't pay their apprentices.
September 2nd, 2011 at 10:46 AM ^
I live in East Europe and have only recently begun to get paid for what I do. So free live-streams are still the ideal option for me.
And I understand your priorities with regards to beer (and how expensive it can be): I hope that, if/when I return to the states, I'll never have a problem finding good European beer or a legitimate substitute. I've had so much of the good stuff here that I don't think I'll ever go back to the disappointing Amercan mass-produced stuff.
September 3rd, 2011 at 12:29 PM ^
I used the example of a danish beer as an exaggeration. The ESPN Player with the College Subscription package costs around 100 Euros. I normally don't buy beers or go out ever.
September 3rd, 2011 at 12:52 PM ^
I hear that too. There are some decent American Beers out there, but your average 1 euro german beer is just so much better than that 1 dollar Safeway beer.
September 2nd, 2011 at 7:49 AM ^
I live in Spain and ESPN player is only 20 euros a month which is quite reasonable for high quality streaming. Not only do you get all of the important UM games (no BTN) but a great selection of the best games from around the country - and they keep them on archive to watch when you want. Sounds like a pretty good deal for a whole month a the price of a few Danish beers.
Thanks to all for the other links as the BTN games are not on espn.
September 2nd, 2011 at 8:14 AM ^
and am wondering what kind of coverage you get with ESPN college game pass. For example would I be able to get the Michigan-Notre Dame game next week that is on ESPN. Is big ten network online streaming available in Canada? I'm assuming in Canada ESPN college game pass will not have any Michigan games that the big ten network broadcasts. Is this correct?
Thanks
September 2nd, 2011 at 9:57 AM ^
and I have not been able to get the BTN to stream online. For whatever reason it doesn't seem to be available in Canada.
As for the game pass, I am not sure. I get the Bell expressvu college sports package which is far from ideal, but between it and online streaming I got to see all the games last year. I only had to watch 2 or 3 online.
September 2nd, 2011 at 10:44 AM ^
with the Super Sports Pack (NCAA Football and Basketball). The BTN is also available to order as a separate channel. In the past they've given it to me for free which I ordered the Super Sports Pack.
The only frustrating things are that (1) Rogers is an evil media-providing conglomerate and (2) it is difficult to figure out in advance which games will be on the Super Sports Pack. But with one or two exceptions (Delaware St, I think) I've been able to watch all the Michigan games.
September 2nd, 2011 at 9:22 AM ^
bless you boys. thank you :)
September 2nd, 2011 at 9:30 AM ^
http://www.freedocast.com will have the game with a title like: "loiweaflweifslkffff"
So you can't search for it, but if you got to the main page around game time they will show thumbnails of "live" streams and you'll have to pick the michigan game out of the screen shots (not too difficult). ESPN3 looks like crap on my dsl connection before thinking it can display HD, and then freezing and going back to crap. So freedocast was the only way I could find anything last night.
Those feeds are extremely hard to shut down because they are almost impossible to find without already having the link, so it's well worth taking the few moments it takes to hunt for it at first.
September 2nd, 2011 at 9:35 AM ^
Another option is to try to find the channel instead of finding a specific game.
www.justtvnuts.com almost always has a working channel for ESPN, ABC (east and west coast), etc.
September 2nd, 2011 at 10:04 AM ^
September 2nd, 2011 at 9:54 AM ^
Here's one that has been fairly reilable so far:
It has the "normal" amount of ads, and quality varies, but they do have a lot of choices, and a decent list of US football games.
September 2nd, 2011 at 10:19 AM ^
http://www.vodkasports.tv/ and http://www.votkasports.tv/ are very good for NFL.
September 2nd, 2011 at 10:50 AM ^
ESPN3 works great for me here in the states and far away from the midwest blackout region for Michigan.
I also use http://chanfeed.com/ (adhte new site) and http://www.soccertvlive.net/ which has worked quite well lately.

It costs half my left arm...but so does everything in Japan
