My friend Patrick told me yesterday that I should check out Team Handball. He said its a lot of fun to watch. I immediately thought “I should find out when they are streaming a Team Handball match.”
My daughter posted on social media that she can’t deal with the non stop advertising that NBC is running on their main channel. I can’t either.
The combination of being able to watch when you want and how you want with the incredibly annoying experience of the main NBC broadcast tells me that this may be the Olympics that streaming starts to beat TV.
So when I saw this Variety headline this morning, NBC Universal’s Olympic Upset: Streaming Trumps TV, I clicked on it and read it.
There isn’t enough data in that article to conclude that streaming has, in fact, passed TV as the dominant way we watch the Olympics.
But I can tell you that the streaming experience definitively has.
