These videos will be made available as clips on Vista Media Center and organized into channels based on event (e.g. swimming, gymnastics, track &amp; field, etc.) The service, called "Olympics On the Go," won't be offering live coverage, but will be providing "up-to-HD quality" automatic downloads with help from digital content provider, Wavexpress's TVTonic. Because the content is downloaded instead of streamed, the footage can be watched whether you're online or not. And since Media Center extenders like the Xbox 360 let you view content on other devices besides a PC, you can watch the Olympics events you want to see from any room in your home. Best of all, this service will be completely free!<img src="http://on10.net/22825/WebViewBug.aspx?EVT=0" height="1" width="1" alt="" />http://on10.net/blogs/sarahintampa/Olympics-Are-Coming-To-Media-Center/http://on10.net/blogs/sarahintampa/Olympics-Are-Coming-To-Media-Center/Wed, 25 Jun 2008 18:16:00 GMThttp://on10.net/blogs/sarahintampa/Olympics-Are-Coming-To-Media-Center/5213http://on10.net/22825/WebViewBug.aspx?EVT=0The 2008 Beijing Olympics are nearly here and along with the Silverlight-powered <a href="http://www.nbcolympics.com/">NBCOlympics</a> website, the Microsoft/NBC partnership will also bring us video from the Olympic Games right to our Media Center PCs.
