Now it's one main BBC channel and one option on the red button. Not checked i-player, but I suspect it's not much else. There's lots of chat and highlights, mainly of what the Brits have done.
As for the pay channels, weren't Sky denied a bid for the Olympics for this specific reason?
Isn’t the Olympics one of the Crown Jewels of Sport or does that not exist anymore? I often wonder if its time for the BBC to stop being publically funded and set themselves up as a global TV network. The revenues they could make are huge in the commercial world, at which point a lot of sports would be back on regular tv in the UK.
